    A chilling, addictive psychological thriller from bestselling thriller writer Keri Beevis 
    One sister murdered. One brother jailed. One love betrayed. 
    Mead House was once our childhood home. Despite my fears, I always knew we would have to return to face the demons of our past. Back to the place where it happened, to where, as carefree teenagers, we lost our elder sister in the most brutal of circumstances. 
    As executors of our grandmother’s will, my twin brother, Ollie, and I needed to empty the house for resale. What I didn’t expect to discover was my sister’s secret journal that contained her most private thoughts and shocking dark secrets. 
    Now I am questioning everything that I saw that night.  Did I get it wrong, who I saw? Did my evidence send an innocent man, my then boyfriend's brother, to jail for the last 17 years? 
    I know I have no choice. If I want to find answers, I will have to go back to that fateful night my sister died. When she made her last visit to the summer house. 
    A tension-packed psychological thriller that will have you gripped. 
    Perfect for fans of Freida McFadden, Claire McGowan and Lisa Jewell.
