Description
A group of friends, a night of secrets, a sworn silence…
The silence is now broken at the most unseeing of times.
But why?
Why would anyone want to bring up a past that safely lay buried?
A secret that could destroy the lives of many. A secret that had no doubt haunted those present for many years anyway...
In the blink of an eye, Felix Darbell’s life is thrown into chaos. Submitting to the urge to revisit the source his fears, Darbell returns to the venue where it had all almost ended.
Flowerdew is almost how he remembered it...
Meanwhile, Detective Chief Inspector Gil Mayo has a new addition to his team, Abigail Moon.
When they receive a note, it doesn’t mean much to Mayo.
Trying to decipher the note takes them down too many paths to be too bothered by its content.
And then the discovery of Angie Robinson’s asphyxiated body provides more questions than answers.
A search of Angie’s residence soon unearths a link to the note – a link that Mayo needs to investigate the murder from a different angle.
What was Angie about to reveal?
There are secrets, of that Mayo is certain. But which one of the likely suspects will crack first?
The Company She Kept is a gripping thriller that takes a walk down memory lane, to a night that changed lives forever…
