About the book

Obsession. Intrigue. Revenge. Get ready for one of the most twisty-turny novels you will read this year.

‘Compulsive, clever and
gasp out loud twisty, I absolutely loved it’ Lisa Jewell
'
A thrill-ride of a novel - dark, riveting and twisty' Lucy Clarke
'Totally unpredictable. I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough' Claire Douglas
Razor-sharp plotting, great writing ... a pitch-perfect legal thriller’ Harriet Tyce
'This
brilliantly written and unique novel had me turning the pages through the night' Heidi Perks
_____________

A woman falls to her death from a London bank's twenty-fifth-floor roof terrace.


You're arrested for her murder.

You tell the police that you only met the victim the previous night at your office party. She was threatening to jump from the roof, but you talked her down.

You've got nothing to do with this tragedy.
You're clearly being framed.

So why do the police keep picking holes in your story? Even your lawyer doesn't seem to believe you.

It soon becomes obvious that you're keeping secrets.

But who are you trying to protect? And why?
