On holiday in Chile with her best friend Kristen, Emily is having the time of her life.

Until one night, she finds their hotel suite covered in blood.

Kristen claims a backpacker attacked her. She shouted, but no-one heard. She struggled, but he was too strong.

She had no option but to kill him.

With no evidence of the assault, Emily must help her hide the body. . .

Back home, Emily tries to forget what happened, but a surprise visit from Kristen forces her to confront the events of that night.

As the walls close in, Emily asks herself: can her closest friend be trusted?

Stylist
Tantalisingly suspenseful, frequently surprising, thoroughly compelling. We Were Never Here is a terrific, thought-provoking thriller
BP Walter, bestselling author of The Dinner Guest
My God, [Bartz] is SO GOOD at building that tense oh-no-what-have-I-done queasy energy! Zippy, nervy and so thoughtful and current on women's safety
Harriet Walker, author of The New Girl and The Wedding Night
Incredibly tense and atmospheric, We Were Never Here explores the nuances of memory, the secrets that bind a friendship-and those that threaten to tear them apart. Andrea Bartz delivers a sharp, unsettling thriller about power, obsession, and the inescapable grip of the past
Megan Miranda, New York Times bestselling author of All the Missing Girls
Andrea Bartz has proven herself a master of the timely literary thriller
BuzzFeed
[A] riveting psychological thriller... Suspense fans will look forward to seeing more from this talented author
Publishers Weekly
Exhilarating ... Bartz's writing will keep readers on their toes, questioning everything and looking for hidden meanings...A slow-burn thriller that gradually suffocates both the protagonist and the reader-in a good way
Kirkus
Intelligent, methodical ... Emily and Kristen [would] be right at home in a Hitchcock psychological thriller. A terrific novel, blending the Hitchockian elements with a touch of Patricia Highsmith
