Thursday's Child

Twenty years ago teenager Frieda Klein was brutally attacked in her own home. No one believed her - not the police, not her mother, not her friends. She left town, trained as a psychologist and never went back. Now an old classmate has shown up. She wants help with her daughter, who claims to have been attacked at home.

A sophisticated and addictive novel from bestselling author Nicci French, revealing more about psychotherapist Frieda Klein than ever before.

When psychotherapist Frieda Klein left the sleepy Suffolk coastal town in which she grew up, she never intended to return. Left behind were friends, family, lives, and loves but, alongside them, painful memories; a past she wouldn't allow to destroy her.

Years later, an old classmate appears in London asking Frieda to help her teenage daughter. When death follows, Frieda has no choice but to return home to confront her past. And the monsters no one else believed were real...

Frieda can trust no one as she tries to piece together the shocking truth before another innocent dies.
