For Victoria, image is everything, and on the surface, she has it all: a big house, a successful husband, and two beautiful children. But behind the scenes, things are very different. Victoria and her husband have a dark secret, and she lives in terror of it being discovered—of her perfect façade being shattered forever. Under massive stress, but still desperately trying to keep up appearances, her family is falling apart: her husband Kit is unable to work, her teenage daughter Anna grows ever more rebellious, and her nine-year-old, Joey, seems increasingly different from other kids. Victoria realizes she has to act now or she will lose everything. And that’s when she has to ask herself how far she's willing to go and how much she's willing to do to preserve her perfect family. The answer is beyond shocking, and it will plunge them all into a nightmare from which they may never wake....

Lorna Dounaeva worked for the British Home Office before turning to crime fiction. She loves books and films with strong female characters; her influences include Single White Female and Sleeping with the Enemy. She lives in Surrey with her husband and three children, who keep her busy wiping food off the ceiling and removing mints from USB sockets. For more information, visit LornaDounaeva.com.
