Summary

A gripping debut psychological thriller that will keep you hooked. Perfect for fans of Paula Hawkins and S. J. Watson.

Veronica Pullman's comfortable suburban life comes to a shuddering halt when her young daughter, Grace, tragically dies in a car accident.

Months later, unable to come to terms with her daughter's death, detached from her husband and alienated from her friends and family, a chance encounter on a rainy street pushes her into an unlikely new friendship.

Scarlet is everything Veronica could've been: feisty, adventurous, unpredictable. But as she approaches what would have been Grace's 10th birthday, it becomes clear to Veronica that the friendship she thought was saving her life could be costing her everything.

Consumed by grief and left questioning her own sanity, is there anyone she can really trust, or is someone out to torment her as part of their twisted game?

Critic reviews

"This novel is a beautifully written, if disturbing, exploration of how grief affects friendships, marriage and the main character's sense of self." (Anita Davison, author of Flora’s Secret)
