What to expect

I thought my sister was killed a year ago. But now her baby is on my doorstep…

 

I’m drinking a glass of wine in my quiet, empty house, listening to the silence and wondering if I will always be this lonely… And then I hear the knock.

 

When I open the door, I can’t believe what I see. A small bundle, pink fists waving weakly under a patterned blanket, gorgeous deep blue eyes blinking up at me.

 

A baby.

 

I rush to pick her up, clutching her tightly. Who can she belong to? Why would someone abandon her at my door?

 

I call the police, and social care. But I could never have predicted what happened next. Because when they run DNA, the baby is related to me.

 

She’s my sister’s child.

 

But that’s impossible. My sister was murdered a year ago.

 

Wasn’t she?

 

A completely gripping and unputdownable thriller from the bestselling author of Not My Mother that will keep you gripped from the first page to the final shocking twist. Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Lucy Foley and Gillian Flynn.
