Description
YES SAM CARRINGTON, YES. This is how you write a thriller… I read this in one three-hour sitting and I regret nothing. - Goodreads reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
From bestselling author Sam Carrington, who also writes as Alice Hunter, comes another nail-biting thriller.
You never really know what goes on behind closed doors…
When Isla McKenzie is brutally mugged, it’s her boyfriend Zach who’s there for her, moving in to look after her when she can barely bring herself to leave the house.
But then something else happens, right on their doorstep. And it’s almost like someone’s out to get her…
Can Isla and Zach find out the truth before it’s too late? …Or at least before the secrets they’re hiding from each other surface?
Because those may be even deadlier…
From the USA Today bestselling author Sam Carrington comes an absolutely compelling psychological thriller that will make you question how well you know those closest to you—and how safe you ever are. Perfect for fans of Behind Closed Doors, The Girl on the Train, and Gillian Flynn.
