Description

Preorder the BRAND NEW gripping psychological thriller from the BESTSELLING author of The Perfect Parents, J. A. Baker

Praise for J. A. Baker:

"Engaging characters, a chilling tale - Baker at her best!" Bestselling author Valerie Keogh

A devoted mother

Helena has always prided herself on being a good mother, a constant for her daughters, Vanessa the responsible one, and Rachel – fragile and sensitive. But as her daughters navigate adulthood, a chilling question begins to fester: has her devotion been a delusion?

Now, Rachel walks the city streets, lost to addiction, while Vanessa's endless nights at work leave her children vulnerable in Helena's care – proof of their fractured family.

Her worst nightmare

Then the disappearances begin. Local girls, snatched from the darkness, their lives brutally extinguished. Fear consumes Helena, yet the harder she tries to protect her girls, the more her daughters push her away until a terrifying thought takes root, twisting Helena’s maternal instincts into icy suspicion.

What if the danger isn't lurking in the shadows...but has been much closer to home all along?
