What to expect

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!

'Bristling with suspense and crammed with false clues, it would make a fine Hitchcock film' Daily Mail

'I couldn't put it down' has never been more true! Crying out to be turned into a Netflix series' Prima


'I read it in one sitting ... The story really drew me in and I was really rooting for both women to escape. A great beach read. 5 stars' Netgalley review

Claire and Eva lead very different lives, but they have one thing in common - they are both in huge danger and need to disappear.

A chance encounter at the airport presents the two women with a simple but crazy solution: switch places then drop off the grid when they land.

But one woman will never reach her destination.

In a smart, tense and twisting narrative that will have you hooked from the first page to the last.
