A compulsive thriller from the Richard and Judy and internationally bestselling author of The Nanny.

Now in paperback, this is the second novel from the author of "Burnt Paper Sky", about a child genius with a dark past whose mother is murdered.

This taut, well-written thriller explores domestic violence and family bonds ... and the conclusion is shocking and wonderfully satisfying. The story is told from multiple characters' perspectives, and is an insight into complicated relationships and the myriad reasons people choose one another. I hope Macmillan can be persuaded to write a sequel.
