From Chris Brookmyre, winner of the Theakstons and McIllvanney awards for Black Widow, comes a standalone psychological thriller full of twists, lies and betrayal.
One family, two holidays, one devastating secret. To new nanny Amanda, the Temple family seem to have it all: the former actress; the famous professor; their three successful grown-up children.
But like any family, beneath the smiles and hugs there lurks far darker emotions.
Sixteen years earlier, little Niamh Temple died while they were on holiday in Portugal. Now, as Amanda joins the family for a reunion at their seaside villa, she begins to suspect one of them might be hiding something terrible.... And suspicion is a dangerous thing.
©2019 Christopher Brookmyre (P)2019 W. F. Howes LtdThe story - a combination of psychological thriller and dark family drama - is mostly set in Portugal, has a dual timeline and multiple POVs. Most of the characters are obnoxious, and it's obvious from the start that there are more than a few secrets lurking in the past. Throughout most of the book there's an impending sense of doom. It had me hooked from the start (the prologue made sure of that), and I was soon completely immersed in the story.
I already knew the narrator from "Eleanor Oliphant", she's really excellent. I love her Scottish accent and tone of voice.
Gripping story, brilliantly read
