Summary

The brilliant psychological thriller from bestseller Valerie Keogh.

Grieving or guilty?

When Allison’s wealthy and charming husband Peter is found dead, she appears distraught, devastated...delighted?

Because despite an apparently picture-perfect marriage, Allison knows it was all built on a bed of lies.

And as the truth regarding Peter’s life and death are revealed, Allison must try to keep her own dark past buried.

Because if Peter was keeping secrets, then his widow is too....

Perfect for fans of Sue Watson, Shalini Boland and K. L. Slater.

"A wonderful book, I can’t rate this one highly enough. If only there were ten stars, it’s that good. Valerie Keogh is a master story-teller, and this is a masterful performance." (Anita Waller, bestselling author)

Had to keep listening it was so good.

Oh I just loved this, there were so many twists and turns and the different points of view made it so special. I listened to this through the audible plus catalogue and I am so glad that I did. I do admit I do love a good psychological thriller by this author she does it so well. The narration for me worked really well. I just couldnt stop listening and had to find out what happened at the end.
