Description
A sexy, sensational novel with intoxicating vengeance and an unexpected tenderness — No. 1 Sunday Times bestselling author Karin Slaughter.
A woman who has everything…
People would kill to have Faye Adelheim's life. She lives in a beautiful apartment, has a gorgeous husband who gives her everything she's ever wanted, and has an adorable daughter who lights up her world.
Or does she?
How is it, then, that Faye now finds herself in a police station? The truth is about to come out…
The truth is that Faye's life is far from what it seems. And now she's been caught out. There's no way she's going down without a fight. The only question is – who will escape with their life?
