Isabel suspects that Owen was responsible for Juliaâ murder, and sheâ hoping finally to find some kind of resolution. Feeling cut off from her husband and child in Turkey, and awash with unexpected memories, Isabel ventures further into the murky depths of her past. But nothing is as it seems – either past or present – and as Isabelâ world unravels we finally realise the stunning, shattering truth . . . ‘Exquisitely written yet utterly chilling, this will keep you gripped from start to finish; a potential book-group classic’ Elle magazine
