So this is how it ends. It is clear to me now: one of us has to die.
Who will believe your story if the only witness is dead?
Cleo knows she should be happy for her brother Mark. He's managed to find someone new after the sudden death of his first wife - but something about Evie just doesn't feel right....
When Evie starts having accidents at home, her friends grow concerned. Could Mark be causing her injuries? Called out to their clifftop house one night, Sergeant Stephanie King finds two bodies entangled on blood-drenched sheets.
Where does murder begin? When the knife is raised to strike, or before, at the first thought of violence? As the accused stands trial, the jury is forced to consider - is there ever a proper defence for murder?
Kritikerstimmen
"A properly addictive, leave-the-light-on thriller." (Red Magazine)
"Masterly and compelling. I couldn't put it down until its heart-stopping conclusion." (Robert Bryndza)
"Unbearably tense, with a killer twist." (Good Housekeeping)

"My name is Amber Reynolds. There are three things you should know about me. I'm in a coma. My husband doesn't love me anymore. Sometimes I lie." Unnerving, twisted and utterly compelling, you won't be able to put this new thriller down. Set to be the most talked about book in 2017, it's perfect for fans of Behind Closed Doors, The Girl on the Train and The Widow.
