An atmospheric, creepy, tense thriller - intriguing, haunting, and kept me guessing right till the end. I loved it' ANDREA MARA'Scary and thrilling in equal nature, I was obsessed with finishing this book. A must read' JO SPAIN'A rural community full of secrets, a satisfyingly baffling mystery and a plot that races along to a perfect conclusion' JANE CASEY

Since losing her parents in a car crash as a teen, Allie has struggled to cope. Meeting Rory finally made things easier. She's come to rely on him for almost everything, so when he disappears while filming a documentary in the West of Ireland, she fears she'll come undone. Again.

When a couple arrive at the Dublin apartment she and Rory share, claiming to be the new tenants, Allie is distraught. Why did Rory let out their home without telling her? And - where is he?

She seeks refuge at the run-down and reputedly haunted Raven Cottage in the Slieve Bloom mountains, where she and Rory were planning to move one day. Allie slowly starts to build a life for herself - and begins to believe that she might manage to make it alone.

But then Rory's car is found submerged at the end of a pier, nowhere near where he was supposed to be - and the body in the driver's seat isn't his. Alison starts to revisit her memories of their time together, and begins to question if she can trust them.

A gripping, haunting thriller that will give you chills - perfect for fans of Tana French, Erin Kelly and Jane Casey.

'Hauntingly atmospheric . . . will keep you up all night! ' SAM BLAKE'Devoured this in two sittings. A hugely atmospheric mystery with a creeping sense of dread' BRIAN MCGILLOWAY'Had me gripped from the start' AMANDA JENNINGS
