''Taut, clever, compelling and guaranteed to keep you on the edge of your seat'' Paula Hawkins, author of The Girl on the Train You think you know her But look a little closer She is a stay-at-home mother of three with boundless reserves of patience, energy and love. After being friends for a decade, this is how Liz sees Jess. Then one moment changes everything. Dark thoughts and carefully guarded secrets surface and Liz is left questioning everything she thought she knew about her friend, and about herself.
