'Brilliant twisty dark farce' ERIN KELLY

'A nail bitingly tense and original book' SHARON BOLTON

'Compulsive, horrifying and irresistibly funny' VAL MCDERMID

Shortly after Christmas, a message arrives at Sophie's house, scrawled across her own round robin newsletter: HE'S GOING TO LEAVE YOU. LET'S SEE HOW SMUG YOU ARE THEN, YOU STUPID BITCH. Perhaps she should ignore it, but she ignored the last one. And the one before that. Now it's time to take action.

But when a simple plan to identify and confront the other woman goes drastically and violently wrong, Sophie must go to extreme lengths to keep her life and her family together - while never letting on her devastating secret.

Laura Wilson is an incredibly gifted writer who can portray an entire lifetime in a single paragraph. This is a nail bitingly tense and original book - Sharon Bolton

Dark thriller leavened with a wicked streak of humour - Fanny Blake, Woman & Home

Deliciously dark, at times grisly, and always darkly comic thriller - Sunday Mirror

I had a knot in my stomach from the suspense. It's a stand-out domestic noir, slickly written and perfectly paced - Jo Spain

A thrilling Must Read from Laura Wilson. Murderous chaos set amongst privileged domesticity. Wry, dark and brilliantly observed - Hilary Boyd

“Worth a read if you don’t take it too seriously ”

I have got to admit, I expected this to be a typical thriller/domestic noir along the lines of ‘Gone Girl’ and ‘The Girl on the Train.’ However it turned out to be quite different and not what I expected at all.... More
