520    NAMED A BEST MYSTERY/THRILLER OF THE YEAR BY  PUBLISHERS 
       WEEKLY , A BEST MYSTERY/THRILLER OF THE MONTH BY  POPSUGAR
       , AND A MOST ANTICIPATED READ OF THE YEAR BY  CRIMEREADS; 
       Winner of the Goncourt Prize and now an international 
       phenomenon, this dizzying, whip-smart novel blends crime, 
       fantasy, sci-fi, and thriller as it plumbs the mysteries 
       surrounding a Paris-New York flight.     Who would we be 
       if we had made different choices? Told that secret, left 
       that relationship, written that book? We all wonder&
       mdash;the passengers of Air France 006 will find out.     
       In their own way, they were all living double lives when 
       they boarded the plane: Blake, a respectable family man 
       who works as a contract killer. Slimboy, a Nigerian pop 
       star who uses his womanizing image to hide that he's gay. 
       Joanna, a Black American lawyer pressured to play the good
       old boys’ game to succeed with her Big Pharma 
       client. Victor Miesel, a critically acclaimed yet largely 
       obscure writer suddenly on the precipice of global fame. 
       About to start their descent to JFK, they hit a shockingly
       violent patch of turbulence, emerging on the other side to
       a reality both perfectly familiar and utterly strange. As 
       it charts the fallout of this logic-defying event,  The 
       Anomaly  takes us on a journey from Lagos and Mumbai to 
       the White House and a top-secret hangar. In Herve Le 
       Tellier's most ambitious work yet, high literature follows
       the lead of a bingeable Netflix series, drawing on the 
       best of genre fiction from "chick lit"to mystery, while 
       also playfully critiquing their hallmarks. An ingenious, 
       timely variation on the doppelganger theme, it taps into 
       the parts of ourselves that elude us most.
