Three-year-old Millie Everleigh disappears on a crisp winter's day, and nothing is as it seems…
It's the phone call every mother dreads.
I'm climbing into the car after a trip to the grocery store. As the engine starts, my phone rings. It's my stepdaughter, Shelby, who is babysitting my three-year-old little girl Millie.
'I only went upstairs for a second,' she says through her sobs. 'She's gone.'
I race home to find my blue-eyed baby girl missing, and my heart ripped out of my chest.
When the police turn up, Shelby's story starts to unravel. What is she hiding?
Then I get a message saying, 'Your husband is not who you think he is.' Could he be lying?
Suddenly, my family feel like strangers. Everyone has a secret - even me.
No one knows why I was late coming back from the shop, and the guilt I've been feeling ever since…
Once the truth comes out, all of our lies exposed, will it be too late to save my precious child?
A pulse-pounding psychological thriller about family secrets, shocking pasts and the lies we tell ourselves in order to survive. You'll lose sleep as you race through the pages until the final gasp-worthy twist! Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Liane Moriarty and The Wife Between Us.
