From the author of The Truth About the Accident and The Family Across the Street comes another twisty psychological thriller that will leave you questioning the truth until the very end–perfect for fans of Freida McFadden.

Lana loves her job as a therapist, listening to other people’s worries, fears—and secrets. She tries never to get too close to her patients…

Until she meets Sandy, whose beautiful green eyes – eyes that Lana is sure look familiar – tear up as Sandy talks about her husband Mike. She swears the bruise on her face was just an accident.

But when Sandy leaves the session, Lana notices marks on the tissue she was dabbing her eyes with. It looks like make-up: blue, yellow, purple. There’s no way Sandy’s black eye was fake – is there?

Then Sandy goes missing. And Lana is accused of being involved.

The one person who might know the truth is Sandy’s husband. Mike says he’s desperate for answers, too –and to find his wife before it’s too late.

But who is lying? The heartbroken husband? The missing wife? Or the therapist who knows all their secrets?

Genre:

Nicole Trope went to university to study Law but realised the error of her ways when she did very badly on her first law essay because—as her professor pointed out—'It's not meant to be a story.' She studied teaching instead and used her holidays to work on her writing career and complete a Masters' degree in Children's Literature. After the birth of her first child she stayed home full time to write and raise children, renovate houses and build a business with her husband.
The idea for her first published novel, The Boy Under the Table, was so scary that it took a year for her to find the courage to write the emotional story. Her second novel, Three Hours Late, was voted one of Fifty Books you can't put down in 2013 and her third novel, The Secrets in Silence, was The Australian Woman's Weekly Book of the month for June 2014.
She lives in Sydney with her husband and three children.
