He’s not like his father… but what if he is?

After divorcing her deranged ex-husband, Nora found marital bliss with Roger, a loving spouse and devoted stepfather to Owen, Nora’s teenage son.

People in town think Owen is strange and a loner. Some say he’s dangerous. They’d say even worse if they knew about Owen’s father… which is why they never will.

Nora’s hidden that part of her past. It’s why she avoids talking about her first husband, and why she made Owen promise to never tell anyone about him.

But now, Nora’s worst fears are coming true. She’s seeing signs that her son is becoming eerily similar to his father.

Roger assures her Owen is harmless, but then how does he explain the shovel Nora found in their shed? One that’s splattered with blood? 

Nora’s terrified the past is repeating itself, this time with Owen. He swears he didn’t do anything, but the truth can only be buried for so long. 

When it’s finally revealed, Nora will uncover a secret much darker than she ever imagined.

A fast-paced psychological thriller! Perfect for fans of Freida McFadden, Daniel Hurst, and Kiersten Modglin.
