A brand new twist-a-minute thriller for fans of Freida McFadden.

Bad Intentions by Iliana Xander follows the story of Josie Boots, who never knew her mother. But everyone in the small town of Burnville had heard the rumours.

Raised by her grandmother, Karen, Josie has always wanted to know the truth behind the whispers. Who was her father? How did her mother die? And what really happened twenty-five years ago that led to a local man found dead, and Karen being accused of murder?

The Boots family have a bad reputation. Karen has never revealed the family's secrets, but Josie is tired of waiting. So when a stranger reaches out offering her answers, she jumps at the chance to meet him.

But in Burnville, when you start digging up the past, you risk setting the whole town alight...
