About this ebook

A shocking psychological thriller from bestselling author, J.A. Baker!

Three troubled women. One deadly secret.

Lissy and her daughter, Rosie, live a quiet life and keep themselves to themselves. But when shocking events at Rosie’s school are revealed, their peaceful existence is shattered.

Meanwhile, middle-aged women Erica and Beverley appear to have perfect lives, but behind closed doors, things are not all as they seem.

All three women are tied together by a terrible secret from their past – the murder of a child. And one of the women is to blame.

But is the person responsible the same person who was blamed all those years ago?

This was quite a good read told from 3 woman's point of view aswell as going back in time to a tragedy when 2 of the main characters go back in time telling the story of when they was only known as Child A and Child B.... The 3rd woman also went through a tragedy and even though there was no proof it was presumed Child A was also involved... There was a few surprises at the end and all is not what it seems... This was worth a read and deserves 4 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟📚🤗👍

I'm glad I'm done with this sample! I did not like the English or British spelling of words or the use of the British language. I don't think I'll be buying many or ANY of Ms. Baker's books.
