Here is a taster…

Kate Forman thinks she’s lucky – she’s surrounded by a loving family and has the perfect husband, Paul. But one night she finds Paul in their kitchen, drunk and with blood on his hands, mumbling about having killed something – or someone.

When a young and attractive woman who works for Paul is found murdered, Kate’s suspicions about what he has really done send her on an increasingly desperate search for the truth that threatens to smash her carefree and enviable life.

Doing the right thing should seem obvious, but as the lies multiply, Kate realises that to find the answers she must ask herself: how well do you know the person you’re closest to?
