What to expect

'An immensely talented new author’ John Marrs, author of The One and When You Disappeared

Engrossing, compelling and twisty from the first page to the shocking ending. This book grabbed me and didn't let go’ Michele Campbell, author of It’s Always the Husband

'Unique and utterly compelling. This twisty psychological thriller will chill you to the bones' Gemma Metcalfe, author of Trust Me

‘A stellar and original concept, brilliantly executed. The final chapters had my heart in my throat! O’Sullivan is certainly one to watch’ Phoebe Morgan, author of The Doll House

A deserted train station: A man waits. A woman watches.

Chris is ready to join his wife. He’s planned this moment for nearly a year. The date. The time. The train. But he hadn’t factored in Sarah.

So when Sarah walks on to the platform and sees a man swaying at the edge she assumes he’s just had too much to drink. What she doesn’t expect is to stop a suicide.

As Sarah becomes obsessed with discovering the secrets that Chris is clearly hiding, he becomes obsessed with stopping her, protecting her.

But there are some secrets that are meant to stay buried…

Perfect for fans of T M Logan, Freida McFadden and C L Taylor.
