'I honestly loved this book so much … Highly recommend to fans of character-driven psychological thrillers' Reader review⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

'Evocative, compulsive, beautifully written â€" a real page-turner' Sophie Hannah

A gripping, twisty psychological thriller for fans of Adele Parks and Claire Douglas.

EVERY FAMILY HAS SECRETS. SOME ARE DEADLY.

Eve returns to the windswept Scottish island of her childhood, drawn back to her mother’s secluded artistic retreat by unsettling news â€" a local boy connected to the family has gone missing.

But the island feels different. Her sister won’t speak, her brother is on edge, and the retreat’s once-thriving group of artists and misfits are quietly packing up and leaving.

As a fierce storm rages across the island, Eve must confront whatever it is her family are hiding â€" and the darkness that may be lurking far closer than she ever imagined.
