Synopsis

'Wow! Chilling, smart, funny, and what a voice she has' Gillian Flynn

'A twisting, high-stakes story . . . Brilliant' Shari Lapena, author of The Couple Next Door

Former FBI agent Brigid Quinn has seen it all, and survived. But nothing can cut her closer to the bone than family...

When her father falls ill, Brigid returns to Florida. There, she meets up with former colleague Laura Coleman. Laura once saved Brigid's life, but now is working on an 'innocence project', investigating cold cases, and one in particular has caught her attention. Marcus Creighton was convicted of murdering his family fifteen years before, and has been sentenced to death.

Worried that her friend is getting in too deep, and that there is more to this case than meets the eye, Brigid promises to help. But what if her instincts are betraying her?
