The Family Friend

By Claire Douglas

A mysterious inheritance unveils a dark and deadly secret in this sensational, nail-biting thriller from the internationally bestselling author of The Wrong Sister and The Woman Who Lied.

When Imogen is told she's inherited a country house near Bath, she thinks it must be a mistake. She last saw its owner, reclusive artist Dorothea Roe, sixteen years ago, during a tragic summer which changed her life. Now, with partner Josh in tow, it's a chance for a fresh start.

But after discovering an old box with her name on it in Dorothea's abandoned study, Imogen starts to believe the woman was trying to send her a message.

And when rumors begin to swirl that Dorothea was murdered, she starts to suspect that this gift might not be the lifeline she thought it was.

Who would want to kill Dorothea?

Could it be tangled up in Imogen's own dark family history?

And what if Imogen is now the one in danger?
