Description

Some people will do anything for family. Even kill for it…

When Sophia, a wealthy woman far from home, meets Rebecca, a struggling nurse and mother, at a paint-and-sip class in New York, their friendship unfolds just as you might expect.

The lonely outsider finds her place. The overwhelmed mother gets the help she desperately needs. The two women save each other.

But that’s only the beginning.

The first time Sophia reads Rebecca’s journal, it’s curiosity. The next time, it’s desperation.

Because she’s realized she’s not the only one in this house with secrets…

A dark, twisting domestic thriller for fans of Freida McFadden and Jeneva Rose, about the people we trust, and the ones who destroy us.
