“Fierce, fascinating and full of insight, Frieda Klein
is irresistible.”—Val McDermid, bestselling author of
Splinter the Silence
The electrifying
fourth book in the internationally bestselling Frieda Klein
Mystery series
Frieda Klein is uninterested in
catching up on old times when her former classmate, Maddie
Capel, shows up at her door—until she hears about Maddie’s
troubled daughter, Becky. The teenager claims she was raped
in her own bed one night while her mother was downstairs.
Her assailant left her with a warning: “Don’t think of
telling anyone, sweetheart. Nobody will believe you.”
And no one does—except Frieda.
Becky’s
story awakens dark memories of an eerily similar incident in
Frieda’s own past that she’s been avoiding for decades. When
Becky is found hanging from a beam in her bedroom, Frieda
returns home, seeking out her old high school friends to ask
what they remember about the night that prompted Frieda to
leave town for good. But confronting the ghosts of the past
turns out to be more dangerous than she ever expected.
