'So many twists and turns that I didn't know what to expect next' ★★★★★
When human bones are found in the garden attached to the glamorous London home where she grew up, Jess McIntyre prepares to receive the news she has dreaded for thirty-four years: that her sister, Nina, is dead and now here is the proof.
Nina disappeared without a trace in 1992, aged eighteen, the summer she fell in with a charismatic group of friends who squatted in a vacant house on the other side of Willow Gardens.
Having moved to Australia years ago, widow and single mum Jess arrives back in London to provide a DNA sample to help the investigation, with her teenage son, Ollie, in tow.
As they try and unravel the secrets of Nina's past, and her connection to a sinister cult, will they discover that some bodies are best left buried...?
Readers are GRIPPED by Emma Babbington's thrillers:'I could not put this down! The twists and turns - I did NOT see them coming!' ★★★★★
'I haven't read a book with such well developed characters in a long time and this book manages to match that with a fast, clever plot' ★★★★★
'You will not be able to out this one down' ★★★★★
'A twisty, atmospheric story that's deeper and more complex than your everyday domestic thriller' ★★★★★
'I stayed up well past the time I should have been asleep. Five stars no doubt. Can't wait to see what else this author has to offer' ★★★★★
