THREE WOMEN. ONE BODY. WILL THEY EVER LEARN?

The jaw-dropping new thriller from Sunday Times and Kindle #1 bestseller Harriet Tyce

'The shocks kept coming right up to the final pages.' Lisa Jewell

'Harriet's best so far.' Sophie Hannah

'Nothing short of unputdownable. One of the best openings I've read in forever.' Alex Michaelides

'A shocking, provocative, standout thriller.'Chris Whitaker

'Left me breathless.' Lucy Clarke

Anna wants a fresh start after three long years behind bars.

Lucy craves the attention of the only man she can't have, her alluring Oxford professor.

Marie has spent too long as a recluse living by someone else's rules.

When three strangers stumble upon an elaborate web of lies and the dead body at the heart of it, they will discover the true price of getting the life they desire so badly.

But will it be too late?
