Perfect boyfriend. Perfect liar. Perfect killer?

I am on my way home, thinking only of the quiet, happy evening to come, when I see something completely impossible, and my heart stops dead. I would recognise those gorgeous pale blue eyes anywhere. It’s him. The high-school boyfriend I adored… Until the day he vanished without a trace.

I run towards him, my pulse racing. He turns, politely, a puzzled look on that familiar face. ‘I’m sorry,’ he says. ‘Do I know you?’

I need answers. I’m certain he’s lying. I just have to prove it.

Him

Of course you recognised me. Always so keen, always trying to do right by everyone.

It’s typical of my bad luck that we happened to run into each other.

I left this place for a reason – one you never knew. And now I’m back, I have plans.

And I’m afraid, my dear, that you’re getting in my way…

A completely gripping story of betrayal, lies and secrets that will have you glued to every page and open-mouthed at the twists. Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Ruth Ware and Gillian Flynn.
