'Smart, suspenseful, brimming with secrets.' KATE MORTON

The moment she laid eyes on Heather Wisher, Tully knew this woman was going to destroy their lives.

Tully and Rachel Aston are murderous when they discover their father has a new girlfriend. The fact that Heather is half his age isn't even the most shocking part. Stephen is still married to their mother, who is in a care facility with end-stage Alzheimer's disease.

Announcing his plan to divorce and then remarry, the news of Stephen and Heather's engagement sets a chain a family implosion. With their mother unable to speak for herself, Tully and Rachel are determined to get to the truth about their family's secrets and what this new woman really wants.

Heather knows she has an uphill battle to win over Tully and Rachel, all the while carrying the burden of the secrets of her past. But, as it turns out, they are all hiding something.

A garage full of stolen goods. An old hot-water bottle stuffed with cash. A blood-soaked wedding. And that's only the beginning . . .

Critic reviews

Smart, suspenseful, brimming with secrets. This is Sally Hepworth at her unputdownable best
At once familiar, wonderfully unpredictable and riveting. My kind of story
Completely compulsive. Sally Hepworth delivers with this stay-up-late one-more-chapter gem
This beauty I read in a morning... Expect a lot of secrets and revelations.
Another knockout - unputdownable and completely thrilling (Taylor Jenkins Reid, bestselling author of Daisy Jones and the Six)
[An] appealing domestic suspense novel from bestseller Hepworth [with a] fast-moving plot. This often funny and affecting outing should win Hepworth new fans
A warped tale [that] boasts Jane Harper's multilayered characters and Liane Moriarty's wealthy suburban world saturated with lies and deceit. With each domestic thriller, best-selling Hepworth shines brighter and draws in more readers
