'An unusually gripping and authentic police procedural.' SUNDAY TIMES CRIME CLUB, selected for Paperback of the Week
_____
A gritty, heart-stopping crime thriller that will have you utterly obsessed.

We were told to meet at a rooftop bar.

Four friends, bound by one terrible secret.

No one knew why we were there.

Then we saw a woman, watched as she fell from the edge and plunged to her death.

The police think it's suicide, but I know better.

Someone is sending a message.

Now they're coming for us.

Praise for Merilyn Davies:

'A breath-taking, page-turning read' CLARE MACKINTOSH

'Assured, fresh, engrossing' MEL SHERRATT

'Compassionately, confidently and beautifully written' STEVE MOSBY

The characters - and potential suspects - introduced are interesting and compelling, with the background story original and disturbing. Without giving too much away, I felt the subject tackled in this novel deserves to be widely recognised and confronted. This layered plot considers a range of themes including homelessness, revenge and sexuality. By combining all of these strands, Merilyn Davies has produced a believable novel with realistic characters
