My job as a waitress means I'm used to watching everything - and used to lying. Soon I'm posing as someone's girlfriend... But what does he really want from me?
When I slip on my waitress's uniform I become a different person. And I'm good at what I do. I instantly identify Trent as the most important man in the room, and I catch his eye as I serve canapes to his rich clients. We share a little smile... and later that evening, he asks me to pretend to be his girlfriend.
Of course I accept. It's the perfect way for me to escape my own past. He just needs me to watch certain people. It seems easy.
Soon I'm living in his opulent home, wearing a new wardrobe of designer clothes. Then I discover there was a woman here before me. Saskia. Nobody will talk about her...
Suddenly I don't feel safe anymore. If I leave, I'm no longer protected. But if I stay here, in this silent apartment of secrets, will anyone miss me if I disappear?
A completely compelling and twisty page-turner from number 1 bestselling author K.L. Slater. Fans of Lisa Jewell and Freida McFadden will be hooked by The Waitress.
