Description
A twisty-turny thriller that kept me gripped until the fantastic shock ending! – bestselling author Jackie Kabler
I did this. The most awful thing…
Romilly disappeared hours after giving birth, leaving behind her baby. Now, those closest to her rally around to look after the little girl, and to figure out what drove Romilly to do such a thing.
Her husband Marc has an explanation that makes total sense. But is the easiest solution always the right one? And does someone in Romilly’s tight circle know more than they are letting on?
As secrets spill out and old ties are tested to their limits, one thing is clear: the truth will come out. The question is, who will still be alive to hear it?
A twist-filled, emotional tale of dark pasts and even darker secrets – perfect for fans of Adele Parks and Heidi Perks.
‘Deliciously twisted’ – Red
’A tense thriller… The mystery you’ve been waiting for’ – Stylist
