Don’t Trust Mother

The knock jolts me from my tears. I’ve been in a daze since my mother died. But the stranger at the door—Sandra, she says her name is—has brown eyes the same as mine, hair exactly the same shade. She says she’s my real mother. I’m her daughter. She’s lying… Right?

When the woman at my door tells me I was adopted, that she’s my birth mother, I go cold all over. Was the woman who raised me lying all this time?

I’m left shaken. I loved my mother so much. But then I think of the last phone call I had with her. I could hear in her voice that something was wrong. She’d insisted we had to meet that evening, just the two of us. But she never turned up.

I don’t know who to trust. I’m all alone. Then, strange accidents start happening… And when I secretly follow Sandra to try to find out the truth, it feels like I’m the one being watched.

Is my whole life a lie?

And will I survive long enough to uncover who this woman truly is—and what she really wants?

This absolutely jaw-dropping and twisty psychological thriller will have you glued to the pages late into the night. Anyone who loves Frieda McFadden, The Wife Between Us and The Girl on the Train won’t be able to put this down!
