Book Synopsis

''A terrific read, and a whip smart narrative that holds you from page to page.'' Anna Smith

She's got her man. But does she know what he's hiding?

Young, feisty, and beautiful, heads turn wherever Danica Campbell goes, even if she only has eyes for her fiancé, Ricky Fyfe. He might be thirty years older than her, but his job as a big-time club owner in Glasgow means he can afford to give Danica the life she deserves.

Danica knows he has a history after all, his adult daughter Teigan works at the club and she knows that Teigan's mum, Elle, disappeared decades ago. It doesn't matter, because Danica knows that Ricky will do anything for her.

Until the day that a woman walks into their lives and everything that Danica knew about Ricky falls to pieces. Faced with the reality of Ricky's past, Danica's got some hard truths to swallow. But what Ricky doesn't know that Danica might just be keeping some secrets of her own and when he discovers them, their happy ever after might just come to a shocking end

An absolutely unputdownable Scottish crime thriller that fans of Lynda LaPlante and Kimberley Chambers will love.
