Description
Is he who he says he is?
Izzie Mallon is looking forward to celebrating Christmas on a relaxing yoga retreat. At least, that is what she's telling her mother and colleagues. In reality, she will be shutting herself away from the festive season, and the snowstorm that has brought the city to a standstill, in her apartment on Henrietta Square -- the beautiful home she shared with her beloved husband Sam until his tragic death a few months ago -- with only her grief for company.
Then, there's a knock at the door -- a stranger, stranded by the bad weather.
He tells Izzie that he's Eli Sanders, her husband's long-time friend. Izzie has never met him in person, but feels she owes it to Sam to welcome Eli into her home. Even though her instincts say that she should do otherwise...
As Izzie tries to reminisce with Eli about her husband, cracks in his story begin to show. But will she be able to see clearly through her grief before it's too late?

An absolutely brilliant read and one that I couldn't put down. Very well written with very good characters and a great twist. Definitely didn't see it coming! I was so excited to read this book and I'm pleased to say that it didn't disappoint at all.
Oh wow! This book is like watching a film slowly unfold. You want to shout at Izzie “don’t believe him, don’t go into that room......”.
Izzie is devastated by the recent and sudden loss of her husband Sam. She’s barely coping with life, barely functioning. And decides Christmas and new year aren’t happening for her this year. She plans to hole up with some alcohol and be alone. But then a man shows up at her doors introducing himself as Eli, Sams best friend who has been travelling and only recently heard of Sams death
The book switches to Eli’s perspective too from time to time, so we know who he isn’t. Or do we? Well then we know who he is. Or do we! Why’s he there? What does he want? And what will he do to get it?
Gripping, powerful and very well written, this book is utterly absorbing
Delighted to have an early copy from net galley in exchange for a honest review.
