At twenty-six, Rachel's got a beautiful flat, an outstanding career, the man of her dreams - and life's only getting better. But even those closest to her don't know how much she's overcome to get where she is now. She's never told anyone what happened to almost destroy her life. But she still remembers a long, hot summer fifteen years ago, that sent her into a spiral of self-destruction. A summer filled with secrets known to only one other person - her childhood best friend and now worst enemy, Sophie Townsend. When Sophie comes back into her life unexpectedly, everything starts to slip. And long-hidden events from the past threaten to destroy all Rachel's struggled to achieve...Sarah Diamond details her characters with surgical precision and races to a devastating climax, in a novel that's impossible to put down.
