Description

I stare at the newspaper article about a baby snatched from the back of a car thirty years ago, and wonder why someone would post it through my door. Looking closer, my blood freezes. The little girl in the photo has an unusual scar - just like mine. I've never met anyone with one like it. Is this stolen child... me? Trembling with shock, I know I have to confront my mother. My parents got me through a horrific accident, helped me find a job I love, teaching art, and even with buying my own house. But was it all built on lies? She tells me the day I was born was the best day of her life, and I'm flooded with guilt for questioning her - but why do I catch her burning papers in the garden the next day? Then I come home to find a woman sitting on my doorstep, covered in bruises and claiming she knows who abducted me. I don't know if I can trust her - or if I'll be the next to get hurt. Because all the while, I've been hiding my own secret. Does whoever sent the article know what really happened the day of my accident? Desperate for the truth, I break into the house of my supposed kidnapper. Inside, I find a handwritten list of names. A shiver goes down my spine as I realise wasn't the only child to be stolen. Then I hear a key in the lock, and I know my life is in terrible danger... An absolutely addictive read that will have you racing through the pages and questioning everything you thought you knew about your family. Perfect for fans of The Girl on the Train, Lisa Jewell and Shari Lapena. Read what everyone's saying about Kerry Wilkinson: 'Wow, wow, wow!!!!! This author never ceases to amaze me... I raced right through this one... I couldn't believe that ending... so many twists and turns and I loved it. I didn't know which way was up or down by the time I finished the book. That ending will stick with me for a long time... definitely recommend it.' Blue Moon Blogger ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Absolutely the most unique and twisted thriller I have ever read... The reader will not be able to put this book down once it captures you... The twist at the end is amazing and one no-one will see coming... a wonderfully told tale that kept me reading well past my usual bedtime.' Goodreads reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Oh my - this kept me guessing all the way through. I was literally gagging to find out the truth... you should have seen my jaw drop... I am so glad I started this book on a day when I had nothing else going on... It hit the ground running, sucked me in, chewed me up and spat me out.' NetGalley reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Close the curtains. Turn on all the lights. Lock the doors... a goosebump-causing heart-racing thriller... I desperately flipped pages... twists and turns keep readers on edge... like taking a rollercoaster ride... What a ride!' Goodreads reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
