From the author of the Sunday Times bestseller, The Cleaner...

A heart-pumping psychological thriller about the dark side of love and obsession – an unmissable read for fans of Frieda McFadden, Lucy Foley and Jeneva Rose

YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT HAPPENS BEHIND CLOSED DOORS...

Rafe seems like your perfect man – intelligent, charming, attractive.

You think you've met the one.

You go back to his house one evening and falls asleep in his arms.

When you wake, you reach out for him. But something feels cold beside you…

Rafe is dead – murdered in bed as you lay next to him – and everyone is going to think you did it.

'Absolutely thrilling - kept me guessing until the end.' EDEL COFFEY, #1 best-selling author

'This book gets under your skin. An unputdownable thriller.' JEN BRAY
