A torn-up bride.
Louise’s wedding day is supposed to be the best of her life, but her daily battle with chronic pain and paranoia provides a stark reminder of the past she barely escaped.
A cheating groom.
The groom is also suffering from more than wedding day jitters – he’s in love with the maid of honour and must decide between jilting his bride or continuing to live a lie.
The biggest day of their lives…
Once their vows are uttered, neither the bride nor groom can keep their secrets contained. And when Louise stumbles across a freshly-dead body in the hotel grounds, she realises her terrifying past was impossible to flee all along…
Suspenseful and perfectly plotted, you won't guess the twist in this masterful crime thriller, perfect for fans of Freida McFadden, Lisa Jewell and Adele Parks.
