The truth will set you free... but first, it will shatter your life.
Clara Evans enjoys an enviable life in the manicured heart of Surrey-a picture-perfect marriage built on polite Home Counties suburban secrets. But when a devastating car crash leaves her with a severe traumatic brain injury, her social filter is completely destroyed. She is condemned to a life of involuntary forced truth telling.
In this compulsive domestic noir novel, Clara's sudden inability to tell white lies alienates her close-knit community. But the real nightmare begins during a police interview regarding a local missing girl. Clara's amnesia fractures, unearthing a terrifying suppressed memory: her charming husband scrubbing dark blood off the kitchen floor tiles in a horrific hit and run cover up. Is Clara an unreliable narrator lost in memory loss, or is her husband systematically gaslighting her to protect a killer in a dark mystery?
Trapped in her own home as her husband moves to commit her to a psychiatric ward, Clara faces an agonising choice: surrender to a comfortable lie or risk everything on the unvarnished truth to find justice.
A standout among British crime novel releases and psychological thriller domestic suspense books, Clara is an unputdownable page turner that will keep you breathless until the final revelation.
