Abbott, known for her noir-tinged psychological thrillers, masterfully weaves a tale of ambition, rivalry, and dark secrets within the insular world of dance.

Beyond its gripping narrative, “The Turnout” offers a glimpse into the demanding world of ballet, exploring the sacrifices and pressures faced by dancers striving for perfection. For collectors, this copy represents an opportunity to own a piece of contemporary literary history, as Abbott’s unique voice and exploration of complex themes have earned her critical acclaim and a dedicated following.
