What to expect
The darkly compelling and unputdownable crime thriller from the UK Top 50 bestseller John Nicholl
‘A dark, gritty, and compulsive read’ Daily Express
Nineteen-year-old Sally is battered and bruised, and lying in the hospital once again. It’s nothing new, it’s happened before and it’ll happen again.
But when DI Laura Kesey introduces Sally to a new social worker, she finds hope at a local women’s domestic violence refuge, where she’s surrounded by women just like her.
But then a man is mowed down in a hit and run. Soon a second suspicious death follows. Both deaths link back to the refuge.
Has Sally found a safe place or a new danger?
A breathtaking and twisty crime thriller from former police officer John Nicholl. If you loved The Housemaid, The Girl on the Train, and The Couple at No.9 then you'll be addicted to The Sisters.
