A gripping debut psychological thriller about the dark secrets in a perfect marriage. For fans of Shari Lapena.
I ended my marriage for a man who didn't exist...
I have everything money can buy. I'm a good wife, but sometimes I feel trapped. And when I start an affair with a stranger called Ewan, my life changes in ways I can't begin to understand.
Because Ewan breaks apart my marriage piece by piece and then he just disappears. He uses a fake name and leaves no trace behind; it's like he doesn't even exist.
Someone did this to me and now they're waiting for me to unravel, watching my every move. I can't trust anyone, not even myself - not even the people I love.
