Some houses have their secrets. But so do some people . . . From Jenny Quintana, the bestselling author of The Missing Girl and Our Dark Secret, comes The Hiding Place: a story about identity, love, long-buried secrets and lies. Marina is adopted. She' s always known this - but the circumstances of her birth remain a mystery. Baby Blue, the newspapers nicknamed her at the time, after she' d been found wrapped in a blue shawl, in the hallway of a large, shared house in London. 24 Harrington Gardens. That was the house. And it' s still standing now Marina is an adult; still split into flats. And one of them is to let . . . Of course, Marina knows that the chances of her uncovering the truth about her birth are remote - but she hopes the house might hold some clues. What if it' s not just the house, though? What if someone connected to it knows what really happened that day? Someone who doesn' t want the truth to come to light?
