The brand new unputdownable thriller from the queen of the one-sit read. A woman's disappearance exposes the secrets, lies and not-so-perfect lives of a close-knit community in a luxury condo.

The new gripping and addictive thriller from the No.1 Sunday Times bestselling author of Everyone Here is Lying.

Bryden and Sam have it allβ€”thriving careers, a smart apartment in a luxury condo, supportive friends and a cherished daughter. The perfect life for the perfect couple.

Then Sam receives a call at his office. Brydenβ€”working from home that dayβ€”has failed to collect their daughter from daycare.

Arriving home with their little girl, he finds his wife's car in the underground garage. Upstairs in their apartment her laptop is open on the table, her cell phone nearby, her keys in their usual place in the hall.

Except Bryden is nowhere to be seen. It's as if she just walked out.

How can she have disappeared from her own home? And did she even leave the building at all?

With every minute that passesβ€”and as questions swirl around their communityβ€”Bryden and Sam's past seems a little less perfect, their luxury condo less safe, their friends, neighbours and relatives no longer quite so reliable...

A modern master of the psychological thriller. - Steve Cavanagh

The queen of page-turners - Andrea Mara

Shari Lapena keeps you guessing until the very last page. - Paula Hawkins

Shari Lapena is the undisputed queen of dysfunctional families. - Clare Mackintosh
