Between Two Lives
When Detective DS Nina Calloway is called to Regent's Park on an October morning, she finds a man at the water's edge and four households with something to hide. Between Two Lives is a story about the secrets we carry - and the ones we can't put down.
Claire Ashworth is the managing director of a City firm, the sole earner, the woman who holds everything upright. She is also a woman who has been in love with someone for twenty years and has never said it aloud.
Alex Rowe has spent ten years in proximity to a woman he cannot have. Nothing has happened between them. Not once. He has done everything right. He has maintained every boundary. And it has cost him more than he has ever permitted himself to count.
Marcus Ashworth has been carrying a secret since before he met his wife. He has been going to say something about it tomorrow for nineteen years. He has run out of tomorrows.
And somewhere in Shepherd's Bush, in a letting agency with a name that means something only to one person in the world, a woman has been waiting for exactly this moment.
Told across multiple perspectives and two decades, Between Two Lives is a novel about the loves we don't allow ourselves, the damage of the unsaid, and the specific cost of carrying something you were never meant to carry alone.
Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Liane Moriarty, and Maggie O'Farrell.
The Hollow Vows Series continues in The Names We Kept, coming 2027.
