Publisher Description

Introducing Claudia Lin: a sharp-witted amateur sleuth for the 21st century. This debut novel follows Claudia as she verifies people's online lives, and lies, for a dating detective agency in New York City. Until a client with an unusual request goes missing ... 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. She’s also used to keeping secrets from them, such as that she prefers girls—and that she's just been stealth-recruited by Veracity, a referrals-only online-dating detective agency.    A lifelong mystery reader who wrote her senior thesis on Jane Austen, Claudia believes she's landed her ideal job. But when a client vanishes, Claudia breaks protocol to investigate—and uncovers a maelstrom of personal and corporate deceit. Part literary mystery, part family story, The Verifiers is a clever and incisive examination of how technology shapes our choices, and the nature of romantic love in the digital age.   A VINTAGE ORIGINAL.

"Overall, I would not recommend this book. The excessive number of inconsequential characters, red herrings, and esoteric references made it a confusing read. In addition, I think the narrator had difficulty keeping up with all the characters because sometimes she would voice them differently and sometimes not. I also didn't find any of the characters particularly compelling, which made it difficult to stay invested in the mystery. "
