A BRAND NEW compulsive and obsessive read that will have you saying 'just one more chapter!' 👀 Perfect for fans of Before I Go To Sleep and Alice FeeneyA nail-biting thriller from the top ten bestselling author of The Cuckoo Sister. 'Absolutely addictive' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Gemma Rogers

How can you fight for a life you can't remember?

One moment I was just living my life, finding my way in the world. The next I woke up in a hospital bed with years of my life missing.

The man by my side – Rob, my husband – looks familiar, but I can't remember marrying him. I can’t remember our life together. Most haunting of all: I can’t remember anything about the last five years.

The more I try to piece my life back together, the more I question everything – even myself. Who is Rob, really? And can I trust him? More importantly, can I trust myself?

Beth wakes up in a hospital bed, having lost the last five years of her life. When her husband Rob, comes to see her she feels like he is a stranger. A nurse suggests her instincts might still be there despite her memory loss.

As she prepares to return home, she remains uneasy. Initially attributing her feelings to her memory loss, she soon experiences flashbacks. Can she trust them?

Beth struggles to connect with her house and questions why she lacks friends and why her world feels so small.

The more she spends time with Rob, the more uncomfortable she becomes as glimpses of his temper surface.

Beth grapples with trusting his version of their lives and the accident that caused her memory loss.

As more flashbacks return, she realises Rob may not be who he seems.

Further revelations about her past introduce two more characters who might hold some answers. A showdown ensues, adding to the tension and trepidation throughout the story.

While I sympathised with Beth, I didn’t particularly like any of the characters. I was unsure if I could trust her or them. Nevertheless if you like suspense stories then this is for you.
