Some secrets don’t stay buried…

When Freya Rivers disappears from her home in Plymouth, her twin sister Imogen is left with nothing but questions. Seven years later, Imogen is living in Australia, having searched the world for her sister. So, when her mother calls, she knows it’s time to come home.

Because Emily — the twins’ childhood best friend, who has always known more than she let on — is back. And she has a child with her.

As Imogen begins to dig into the past, she becomes desperate to uncover the truth about what really happened to Freya. But the closer she gets, the more she realises the answers are far closer to home – and far more dangerous – than she ever imagined.

A gripping psychological thriller about obsession, buried guilt, and the lies we tell to survive, where the past is never truly gone and some secrets refuse to stay dead. Perfect for fans of Ask For Andrea and The Night She Disappeared.
