'Confirms Nicci French as the giant of the genre' Erin Kelly

‘A pure adrenaline rush’ Jenny Colgan

Neve Connolly looks down at a murdered man.
She doesn't call the police.

‘You know, it’s funny,’ Detective Inspector Hitching said. ‘Whoever I see, they keep saying, talk to Neve Connolly, she’ll know. She’s the one people talk to, she’s the one people confide in.’

A trusted colleague and friend.
A mother.
A wife.

Neve Connolly is all these things.

She has also made mistakes.
One that is now spiralling out of control.
Bringing those around her into immense danger.

A liar.
A cheat.
A threat.

Neve Connolly is all these things.

Could she be a murderer?
