    The Woman With My Name 
    A Psychological Thriller 
     
    Someone has her name. Her history. Her photographs. And they may be trying to take her life. 
     
    Maya Bennett thinks the first strange incident is ordinary identity theft. 
     
    Then a former colleague insists he recently met with her. 
     
    He didn’t. 
     
    Accounts appear in her name. Messages are sent to people from her past. Personal details surface that were never posted online. 
     
    Then Maya discovers something far more disturbing: 
     
    Another woman has been quietly building a life using her identity for years. 
     
    The deeper Maya investigates, the more her own life begins to unravel. Records change. Witnesses become uncertain. Evidence starts pointing in her direction. And the people she trusts most may know far more than they are willing to admit. 
     
    Soon Maya is no longer simply trying to discover who the other woman is. 
     
    She is fighting to prove who she is. 
     
    Because this was never just identity theft. 
     
    It was preparation. 
     
    And someone has been building the perfect trap. 
     
    The Woman With My Name is a tense psychological thriller about identity, manipulation, betrayal, obsession, and the terrifying possibility that someone could know your life well enough to steal it. 
     
    Perfect for readers who enjoy fast-paced psychological suspense, shocking secrets, unreliable appearances, escalating twists, and mysteries where nothing is quite what it seems. 
     
    How do you prove who you are when someone else has already convinced the world they are you?
