The higher you climb, the harder the fall. I would never have been hired if they knew what I’d done. My past. St Ann’s is a strict environment, and after one year in the coveted position of head teacher, I know I can’t put a foot wrong. Some don’t think I deserve this. Others are desperate for the job themselves. And one of those people wants to bring me down. Whoever this person is, they know things about me. Secrets I’ve barely told anybody. And I’m scared what they might uncover if they delve a little deeper. And what they might do to me – and my family – if I don’t get to them first… A taut edge-of-your-seat psychological thriller, from bestselling author H. M. Lynn. Perfect for fans of Frieda McFadden, Lisa Jewell and Claire Douglas
