Book Synopsis

KEEP YOUR FRIENDS CLOSE . . . BUT YOUR ENEMIES CLOSER

'A powerful, psychological chiller to keep you turning the pages, but keep a light switched on!' SALLY SPEDDING

A chilling and page-turning psychological thriller that is impossible to put down and perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, C. L. Taylor and Shari Lapena.


When Suzanne and Eddie decide to put their house on the market and move closer to their daughter, they neglect to tell their friend and house sitter Ruth.

So when Ruth finds a 'For Sale' sign perched outside their front door, she is outraged. She never imagined they would leave.

What follows is a series of events that are set to ruin the couple's plans - with dramatic and shocking consequences that no one could have predicted...
