Summary
The USA Today best seller.
Rose Grahame had everything Alex D’Arcy dreams of. A handsome husband, a stunning home and a baby boy with twinkling blue eyes and a smile that would brighten the darkest of days. It’s a stark contrast to Alex’s life - her dead-end job, her borderline addiction to drink and pills, her failed engagement and her cluttered flat. But the women’s lives are about to collide - and nothing will ever be the same again.
Strangers in a lift in a shopping centre, Alex gestures to Rose to go ahead of her when they reach the bottom floor. But tragedy strikes when a car ploughs into the young mum - killing her instantly - before driving off at speed. But was this a tragic accident? Or was it more than that? And just how involved is Emily truly going to become?
With twists that will keep you guessing until the very end, Her Name Was Rose makes you question who you can really trust and if any of us are truly honest about ourselves in the social media obsessed world.

A fantastic psychological thriller
I loved the semi-Sliding Doors concept of this novel i.e. you let a woman walk out the door before you and she is hit by a car when it should have been you. Claire Allan deftly works up the possibilities around this - was it an accident or intentional? Was the car actually meant for Emily or Rose? Emily has to get closer to Rose's apparently perfect life - and confront her own demons - to find out. The story is gripping and immersive - you'll feel like you work in that dentist's clinic - and the narrator does a fantastic job of bringing the different characters to life.

An engaging & entertaining listen
I totally loved the @audibleuk version of “Her Name was Rose”. “Rose” is a thought provoking & addictive thriller. based in my home town, with lots of intriguing twists & a damn good ending”. Looking forward to reading (& hearing) more from the wonderful @ClaireAllan soon.

Gripping book!
Fascinating and relatable characters weave their way through this gripping and unpredictable plot. I can’t recommend this book highly enough. Can’t wait for another from Claire Allan.
