On a rainy afternoon in November, a tragic car accident happens… or so you think. A little boy is run down by a driver who doesn’t stop, leaving the child lying in the street to die in his mother’s arms. DI Ray Stevens of CID Bristol and DC Kate Evans investigate the hit-and-run case of the five-year-old boy, but for a long time they are unable to make an arrest. There is no car, no driver comes forward to confess, and there are barely any eyewitnesses. Slowly, the case turns cold… until, a year later, an eyewitness finally comes forward with a description of a car he saw speeding away that same day while visiting his sister in Bristol. Meanwhile, Jenna Gray, an art student, meets a young man who gives lectures at her university. Unlike the other girls, Jenna doesn’t pay much attention to him, and that is exactly what intrigues Ian. Determined to win her over, he slowly gains her interest, and before long they become a couple. Not much later, Jenna moves in with him. At first, Ian seems deeply in love with her, but it doesn’t take long before he begins to show another side of himself — a side Jenna could never have imagined. Tired of living in Bristol and haunted by the same nightmares over and over again, Jenna decides to leave everything behind and start a new life somewhere else. But what is she really running from? What truly happened that rainy afternoon in November? Who is Ian, really? And what — or who — is Jenna so afraid of? The answers to these questions, and many more, can be found in this book. A story that pulls you in from the very first page and never lets you go until the very end. Full of twists, suspense, and a plot twist I never saw coming, this book is a true page-turner.

A dark and emotionally gripping thriller filled with shocking twists, heartbreaking truths, and a plot twist that completely blindsides you.
