About this ebook

The BRAND NEW pulse-pounding thriller from Diane Saxon, BESTSELLING author of The Quiet Wife 🩸📖 Just what is in the attic? 😱

I’ve just made the biggest mistake of my life.

As the last of my children leave home, I’ve persuaded my husband we should move house.

Clearing out thirty-odd years of rubbish is overwhelming, but nothing prepares me for what I find in my attic.

It’s a hint at a hidden horror. A box of secrets I only glimpsed, before I was disturbed.

And now it’s gone.

Someone in my home has removed it. Which means someone I love thinks I know their secret. A secret so dark, I refuse to contemplate it. Until I am forced to.

I need to find that box and take a better look.

I need to protect myself because if I’m right...

My life is in peril.

Very, very good indeed. A taut, tense novel. I just couldn't put it down.
