*****

IN HER EYES, NO ONE IS INNOCENT

Georgia Sage has a gift: she can see evil in people. As a courtroom artist she uses her skills to help condemn those who commit terrible crimes. After all, her own brutal past means she knows innocence is even rarer than justice. But when she is drawn back into the trial that defined her career - a case of twisted family betrayal - she realises that her own reckless pursuit of justice may have helped the guilty go free.

As Georgia gets closer to the truth behind that case, something happens that threatens not only her career, but even her sanity. At first, she fears her guilt around the events of her terrible childhood is finally coming back to haunt her.

But the truth turns out to be even more terrifying . . .


*****

IF YOU LIKE YOUR THRILLERS ORIGINAL, TWISTY, EXCITING AND FRESH, THEN YOU WILL LOVE THE SECRETS YOU HIDE - perfect for fans of Anatomy of a Scandal and Let Me Lie.

Every layer, every twist, every revelation makes you question the very characters you thought you could trust, and rethink a plot you thought you were beginning to unravel . . .
