About The Book

When she relives this night over and over, Nancy will wonder what might have been if she'd just gone upstairs a few minutes earlier.

"A dark, haunting tale with an emotional gut punch that stays with you long after the final page. Amanda Cassidy is an unflinching storyteller." —Lisa Jewell, author of The Family Upstairs

A devastating fire.
A grieving mother.
A picture-perfect village full of dark secrets.
And now, a son who has seemingly come back from the dead.
A detective called back to her hometown, back to the scene of a crime she thought she'd left behind...

This electrifying novel from a compelling new voice in Irish crime fiction is perfect for fans of Liz Nugent and Claire Mackintosh.

One of the best books I’ve read this year.

– Andrea Mara

A powerfully emotive and carefully layered story about old secrets, motherhood and demons from the past. Amanda’s lyrical and evocative writing underpins a whip cracking plot that simply swept me away!

– Lizzy Barber, author of "Out of Her Depth"

An emotionally-charged page-turner that won't let you go. I'm still reeling from that stunning ending. I loved it.
