About this listen
DISCOVER A BREATHLESSLY TWISTY NEW THRILLER, FROM A BESTSELLING AUTHOR.
The truth can be a bitter pill . . .
Michelle will never get tired of the view from her office window. Jagged mountains—and the wintry streets of Reykjavik, Iceland. It's a perk of her new job at Kimia Pharmaceuticals.
Her old life—a dreary 9-to-5 and a cheating ex back in London—already feels a million miles away.
Still, there's something strange about Michelle's new colleagues. They're all young, beautiful . . . and aloof. But then Michelle meets Lars, a jittery researcher from the restricted upper floors.
She thinks she's alone in the elevator, until he squeezes between the doors. Just in time. The elevator whirs into action and judders to a sickening halt.
That's when it happens. Lars locks eyes with Michelle. Thrusts a folder into her hands.
This is evidence. Hide it . . . I discovered something and I'll be silenced because of it.
Michelle's already run from her past. This time, she'll be running for her life . . .

Story
If anyone walked in on our cosy family dinner, they’d think my daughter and her boyfriend were the perfect couple. I watch as he puts his arm around her. Her eyes shine as she gazes at him lovingly. But I know that he is hiding a secret. A secret that would devastate my daughter… My son sits across the round oak table, his jaw set as he plays with his food. I catch his eye, pleading with him silently. Not now. Only we know the truth. My husband pulls his beautiful girl in for a hug, and my heart breaks. My happy family is so close to ruin. How much longer can I hold us together?

And when the girl is reported missing and the police turn up asking awkward questions, Sabine must decide whether to lie to protect her son, or risk Leo being arrested on suspicion of abduction.
