Summary

Five strangers. One horrific event. What did they see? 

A gripping new thriller about secrets, obsession and lies 

When disgraced journalist Jen Hunter witnesses a horrific murder-suicide on Hampstead Heath one February alongside four strangers, she is compelled to find out what really happened that day. They all saw Daniel kill his girlfriend, Vicky - but can they trust their own memories?

Jen’s best friend, Bex, is worried about her. She knows Jen hasn’t always been the most stable of women. She knows about the lies. She knows why Jen lost her job at the paper.

As the lives of the Parliament Hill witnesses begin to unravel, one thing becomes clear: there is more to what happened that day on the heath.

And Jen needs to find out the truth - even at a cost.

Critic reviews

"Both a tightly-plotted, entertaining work of suspense and an unflinching study of the trauma of witnessing violence, Five Strangers gripped me from the first shocking chapter." (Louise Candlish)

"Meticulously plotted with an ending I really didn’t see coming.” (Sarah Vaughan, author of Anatomy of a Scandal)

"An 'of-the-moment' mystery which keeps you wondering until the final page." (Jane Corry, author of I Made a Mistake)

If you love twists you will love this!

A great twisty & twisted ride from start to finish. E. V. Adamson has dared to go where many won't, inside the minds of his characters. A great listen, performed beautifully by the narrator's.
