How far would you go to protect your family?
A read-in-one-sitting psychological suspense novel for fans of The Teacher and Behind Closed Doors
‘I didn’t see it coming. No black cats crossed my path. No clear-eyed crows cawed alarm from the trees. There was nothing to warn me about what was up ahead. An invisible clock was ticking, each beat drawing my family closer to danger and I was oblivious. Busy with the normal, everyday things that make up a life, I didn’t know about the threats or the blackmail, or about the brutal turn our lives were about to take. I didn’t know that someone close to me was on course to devastate my family. I thought my home was a safe place, that danger kept its distance. I thought wrong.’
Claire’s husband has been keeping secrets. About the whereabouts of the witness to the murder trial he’s prosecuting. And about the letters he’s been getting, threatening to kill their four-year-old, unless he tells the blackmailer where the witness is hiding.
With their daughter’s life at stake, it is left to Claire to untangle the web of lies and half-truths and find out just who might be responsible. And to stop them. Before it’s too late.

This is Corbin's first novel and it's an absolute corker. She weaves this tale of tragedy and secrecy with flair and pulls you into Grace's distress with deft strokes.This book will creep under your skin and have you thinking about it in the small hours. You won't want to put it down.
A short, excellent read that manages to capture the sense of loss when someone close dies, and the sense of desperation to make sense of it all.
A gripping and fast-paced psychological thriller . . . brilliantly written, with just the right amount of suspense . . . this book was one that I couldn't put down.
I sat and devoured this book in one sitting - it was so thrilling and gripping that it just didn't feel safe to put down!
