HE CHEATED. HE LIED . . . HE DIED.

Vicki´s husband David once promised to love her in sickness and in health. But after a brutal attack left her suffering with epilepsy, he ran away with his mistress.

So when Vicki gets a call one day to say that he´s missing, her first thought is ´good riddance´. But then the police find evidence suggesting that David is dead. And they think Vicki had something to do with it.

What really happened on the night of David´s disappearance?
And how can Vicki prove her innocence, when she´s not even sure of it herself?

For anyone who loved The Couple Next Door, Lisa Jewell´s Then She Was Gone and Cara Hunter´s Close To Home, this book has everything you need for the perfect summer read - gripping twists and turns, brilliant characters and a story you can´t put down.
