I’ve spent my entire life trying to make up for what happened that day. I was barely fifteen when I killed my mom.

Twenty years later. 

I’ve turned my life around. I have a handsome, wealthy husband; two daughters who are everything to me; a stunning Connecticut beachfront home. I’m grateful for every minute that we have together.  

Today I came home to find a silver-and-blue gift-wrapped box on the porch. The note inside says: Who killed Midge Lester?  

Midge Lester was my mom. Someone knows.  

AN EXHILARATING BLEND OF PSYCHOLOGICAL SUSPENSE, NAIL-BITING TENSION AND THE BIGGEST TWIST YOU’LL READ THIS YEAR. 

Perfect for fans of Freida McFadden, Daniel Hurst, T.M. Logan, Anya Mora, T.J. Brearton, Patricia MacDonald and Shari Lapena.
