I’m not a killer. But I can’t be trusted.

There are three things you should know about me:

I’m a devoted mother

I’ve been accused of murder

I’m innocent

Two of those things are correct, one is not.

I have to convince the police I’m not guilty. But it’s my word against his.

So who will you believe: me or him?

An absolutely gripping psychological thriller, that will make your heart pound and your jaw drop! Perfect for fans of addictive page-turners like The Housemaid, The Family Across the Street and The Family Upstairs.

Wow to say that was fast paced, unpredictable and enthralling would be an understatement but they are the first words coming to mind.

This is the fasted I've raced through a book in a while. I was definitely addicted and literally couldn't guess what would be revealed next.

Starts off as a relatively simple kidnap of sorts and soon it becomes apparent there are many layers of sinister going ons to be unravelled.

I always had an unsettled feeling while reading about Celia's house, but nothing could have prepared me for what actually happened.

I just knew nothing was at it seems.

This is psychological Thriller writing at its very best.

An utter gem from the pen of an author that I love reading. 

Thank you to Bookouture and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
