Synopsis

Feel chills down your spine with the thrilling third novel in Nicci French's bestselling killer series . . .

Ruth Lennox is found by her daughter in a pool of her own blood. But who would want to murder an ordinary housewife? And why?

'Undeniably at the top of British psychological suspense writing' OBSERVER

'Frieda's thinking keeps you gripped and adds twists that most people wouldn't imagine' 5***** READER REVIEW
­__________

Psychotherapist Frieda Klein wasn't ready for a case to get this personal.

When her niece befriends Ruth Lennox's son, Ted, she finds herself in the difficult position of confidant to both Ted, and DCI Karlsson.

Soon it's clear that Ruth was leading a secret life. Her family close ranks.
And Karlsson needs Frida's help more than ever before . . .

But Frieda is distracted. Having survived an attack on her life, she's struggling to stay focused when a patient's chance remark rings alarm bells.

Suddenly Frieda finds herself chasing the path of a suspected serial killer.

Or is it merely a symptom of her own increasingly fragile mind? . . .
