Something sinister must be behind Ani FaNelli’s impulse to throw away her picture-perfect New York City life, including her financier fiancé, plans for a fancy wedding and a dream magazine career. Knoll slowly reveals the harrowing truth in a debut that’s part The Devil Wears Prada, part We Need to Talk About Kevin.
