She married my ex. She needs my help. But can I trust her?
I came to live in my run-down little cottage in this peaceful village ten years ago. I don't let anyone into my home, I don't tell anyone about the man I ran away from, and so far, I've kept myself safe. But then Jade and her baby girl appear at my garden gate.
Jade married Ryan when I left. Now her hands tremble like mine did, and her face is tired and worn like mine was. I look at the sweet little child cradled in her arms, realising she must be his daughter. In a quiet voice, Jade asks to stay, and I find myself letting her in.
Jade is the one person I can finally confide in, and as time passes, I expect us to grow close. But instead she sits in silence rocking her daughter, and sneaks around my house as if she's looking for something...
I start to wonder if I've trusted the one woman I shouldn't have. But, then again, perhaps she has come looking for safety in the place where she is most in danger. Because as I look at her sweet baby girl, I know, I can never let them leave...
Fans of Liane Moriarty, Jodi Picoult and Linda Green will be completely gripped by this jaw-dropping page-turner filled with heart-stopping twists.
