I thought I had safely buried the past – protecting my family from the secrets I’ve been keeping. But now my lies are exposed in my husband’s will, and one of us will pay for them with their life… My darling husband, Ray, is gone. My three beautiful daughters and I have come to Scotland to walk the trails we once enjoyed together, hold each other, and cry over our loss. But the awful thing is, I feel relieved. Because now Ray is gone, I’m finally safe… Except for the terrible secret I tried so hard to bury – the real reason we’re here. I pull one of my daughters aside and tell her the truth. Ray has left her nothing in his will. I see the shock, the pain, the confusion on her face. I am terrified. My darkest secret is about to be exposed. I could never have imagined that one lie would lead to this. Trapped in this house together, emotions spiralling, truths coming out at last. Everything I’ve worked so hard to protect begins to unravel before my eyes… I have no idea what’s going to happen next, but I’m not sure my family can survive the fallout from all our lies. And my greatest fear is that someone’s secret is worth killing for… A totally gripping psychological thriller from an Amazon No. 1 bestseller that will have your head spinning and your jaw on the floor with every twist. Fans of The Housemaid, Gone Girl and The Family Upstairs won’t be able to put this down!
