    The ALL NEW heart-pounding thriller 👀 from the BESTSELLING author of The Honeymoon, Gemma Rogers💥 - A must-read for fans of Freida McFadden and Lisa Jewell! 
    Every family has their secrets… 
    No.6 Church Road was the Reilly family’s dream home. A recently renovated 3-storey house with just three occupants and more importantly a whole vacant top floor. So, there was plenty of space for one more. Right? 
    They had no idea I was sleeping in their empty loft conversion, cohabiting with them, eating their food, using their water, heating and Wi-Fi. Basically living for free, but it wasn’t for the thrill, I had discovered 'phrogging'. 
    It seemed like the perfect set-up, but when a local woman vanished, I suspected Jack Reilly was involved. You see I'd witnessed their illicit affair and Jack had a cast iron alibi, but I didn't believe it for one second. 
    The secrets in Church Road wouldn’t stay hidden for long, all I had to do was watch, wait and hope I wouldn’t be discovered. 
    A pacy, heart stopping, page turning thriller for the fans of Shari Lapena and Lisa Jewell.
