Description
The unputdownable new domestic thriller from the instant Irish Times bestselling author of The Cleaner, about a woman accused of murdering her lover.
You never know what happens behind closed doors.
Rafe seems like your perfect man - intelligent, charming, attractive.
He also happens to be your boss.
You're too swept up to care for office gossip. In Rafe, you have found the one.
You go back to his house one evening and fall asleep in his arms.
When you wake, you reach out for him. But something feels cold beside you...
Rafe is dead - murdered in bed as you lay next to him - and everyone is going to think you did it.
