LGBTQIA+ (Fiction.) HTML:<b>Introducing Claudia Lin: a sharp-witted&#160;amateur sleuth for the 21st century. This debut novel follows Claudia as she verifies people's&#160;online lives, and lies, for a dating detective agency in New York City.&#160;Until a client with an unusual request goes missing. . . .<br /> <br /> “The world of social media, big tech and internet connectivity provides fertile new ground for humans to deceive, defraud and possibly murder one another. . . . Well rendered and charming. . . . Original and intriguing.” —<i>The New York Times Book Review</i><br /></b><br /> Claudia is used to disregarding her fractious family’s model-minority expectations: she has no interest in finding either a conventional career or a nice Chinese boy.&#160;She’s also used to keeping secrets from&#160;them, such as that she prefers girls—and that she's&#160;just been stealth-recruited by Veracity, a referrals-only online-dating detective agency.&#160;<br /> &#160;<br /> A lifelong mystery&#160;reader&#160;who wrote her senior thesis on&#160;Jane Austen,&#160;Claudia believes&#160;she's landed her&#160;ideal job. But when a client vanishes, Claudia breaks protocol to investigate—and uncovers&#160;a maelstrom of personal and corporate deceit.&#160;Part literary mystery, part family story, <i>The&#160;Verifiers</i> is a&#160;clever&#160;and incisive examination of how&#160;technology shapes&#160;our choices, and the nature of romantic love in the digital age.<br /> &#160;<br /> A VINTAGE ORIGINAL.
