The tension is simmering. The lies are piling up. Who do you trust?
'Pulses with tension until its shocking conclusion' SHARI LAPENA
'White-knuckled suspense' TESS GERRITSEN
___________________
Seven-year-old Jocelyn loves her nanny more than her own mother.
When her nanny disappears overnight, Jo never gets over the loss.
Thirty years later, Jo must return to her childhood home and finally confront the past.
What secrets was her nanny hiding – and can Jo trust what her mother tells her?
Sometimes the truth hurts so much you’d rather hear the lie.
