The enthralling, page-turning new thriller from the internationally acclaimed author of Sticks and Stones. ' I raced through this dark, tightly-plotted and satisfying thriller. Loved it!' Roz Watkins, author of The Devil' s DiceSorry. Beth Lomas thought she knew her late husband. But this one small word, written on the back of a discarded envelope and left on their kitchen table convinces the police that Oscar took his own life. As the police announce they are not seeking anyone else in connection with Oscar' s death, Beth is convinced that there is more to the story. As she sets out to discover what really happened, Beth uncovers shocking truths about the man she thought she knew better than anyone. In their small town it seems like every stone she turns hides an ugly secret and it' s not long before her own dark past begins to rise to the surface.

I raced through this dark, tightly-plotted and satisfying thriller. Loved it! * Roz Watkins, author of The Devil' s Dice * Taut, compelling, authentic, and with a superb crescendo of an ending. With its flawed but strong and relatable female characters, the book is a true page-turner. I loved the last line, which for me summed up the author' s talent in cleverly mixing emotion with just the right amount of dark humour throughout. A great read. Loved it. * J. A. Corrigan * ' A totally engaging, brilliantly characterised read that had me hanging on every twist and turn. An absolute 5* cracker of a book' * Gytha Lodge * Twisty, dark and hugely gripping * Karen Hamilton * Cleverly written, page-turning psychological thriller with an intriguing plot and excellent characterisation * Jenny Quintana *
