The truth can hurt
But a lie can hurt more...
The gripping and emotional new moral thriller from the Richard and Judy and international bestselling author of The Guilty One.
Marie and Lorraine have been friends since college and trust each other with their lives. So when Lorraine, a single mother, needs a much-needed night away without her children, she calls on Marie and her husband Sam to look after them. They're godparents - what could go wrong?
While Marie and Sam believe the children to be asleep, the unimaginable happens and Marie finds baby Theo lifeless in his room. The police are called. Statements are taken. But the biggest nightmare for any parent is about to spiral out of control. Because a lie has been told. An enormous and terrible one.
Out of Marie, Sam and Lorraine, one of them isn't telling the truth...
A tragic, gripping and thought-provoking moral thriller, exploring the themes of parenthood and friendship, and the murky grey areas between right and wrong.
