โฆ Synopsis
NOT EVERYONE DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE . . .
'An excellent, page-turning psychological suspense novel . . . Kept me guessing to the end' Jenny Quintana, author ofThe Missing Girl
The morning after a terrible storm, a woman turns up in a remote Cornish village. She calls herself Charlie, but it's a name she's only had for a few days. She keeps herself to herself, reluctant to integrate with the locals. Because Charlie has a secret.
Charlie was in prison for providing a false alibi for a murderer. But Lee Fisher wasn't a murderer to her; he was the man she loved. Convinced of his innocence, Charlie said she was with him the night a young woman was killed. This sacrifice cost her everything.
And now she has a chance to start again. But someone is watching her, waiting for her, wondering if she's really paid the price for what she did.
'Nerve-wrackingly tense and paranoia-inducing, with a sense of unease that just won't let go. I loved every minute!' Roz Watkins, author ofDead Man's Daughter
'Twisty and so well plotted' Amanda Reynolds, author ofThe Hidden Wife
'Atmospheric and beautifully written but edge-of-your-seat tense too' Phoebe Locke, author ofThe July Girls
