Book Synopsis



She's what every mother needs. But can you trust her?

Charlotte: Since my husband Lawrence died it's just me and our sweet baby girl Jordan. It's so hard raising her alone. Then Sophie shows up at my door. She says she is Lawrence's sister... and she seems like a blessing in disguise. But with her in my house, looking through my things, it's going to be difficult to keep the secrets about my marriage hidden...

Sophie: Charlotte didn't recognize me. That isn't surprising. She seems frantic, and I know she's not sleeping. I hear her tossing and turning while I rock her baby to sleep. When Jordan stares up at me with those big blue eyes, my heart melts. Charlotte doesn't deserve such a gorgeous child. Not after what she did.

It's clear to anyone that Charlotte isn't coping. All she needs is a little push to send her over the edge... And then I'll finally get what I really came for.

Both of these women are liars. One of them is a killer. Who is really in danger in this house?

Perfect for fans of The Housemaid, The Perfect Marriage and The Girl in Seat 2A, this totally addictive psychological thriller will have you up all night!
