## About this book

Stephen Aston is still married to his wife, who lives in a care home with end-stage Alzheimer's, when he tells his grown daughters he plans to divorce her and marry Heather Wisher, a woman half his age. Tully took one look at Heather and knew she would wreck their lives. With their mother unable to speak for herself, Tully and Rachel set out to learn what Heather really wants, while Heather carries secrets of her own.

Everyone here is hiding something: a garage full of stolen goods, an old hot-water bottle stuffed with cash, and, before long, a wedding soaked in blood. Hepworth builds her suspense from ordinary family life, from loyalty, grief and resentment, rather than from monsters. A sharp, secret-laden domestic thriller for anyone who likes their tension close to home.
