LIANE MORIARTY says that ̶No one writes twisted, suspenseful novels quite like Sophie Hannah.” Packed with twists and clues, simmering with tension, this electrifying new thriller shows why.
Shes the most famous murder victim in America. What if shes not dead?
Pushed to the breaking point, Cara Burrows flees her home and family and escapes to a five-star spa resort she cant afford. Late at night, exhausted and desperate, she lets herself into her hotel room and is shocked to find it already occupied — by a man and a teenage girl.
A simple mistake at the front desk... but soon Cararealizes that the girl she saw alive and well in the hotel room is someone she cant possibly have seen: the most famous murder victim in the country, Melody Chapa, whose parents are serving natural life sentences for her murder.
Cara doesnt know what to trust — everything shes read and heard about the case, or the evidence of her own eyes. Did she really see Melody? And is she prepared to ask herself that question and answer it honestly if it means risking her own life?
