My name is Linda. Most of my friends, not that I have many left, call me Lindy. I work as a housekeeper in a local hotel. I had the world at my feet once. Not any more.
The first time I saw Mia was in the car park. She came over to help when my shopping bag split. There's something about her delicate femininity that mesmerises me.
Ever since then, I've been kind of obsessed. Mia is stunning, with beautiful ash-blonde hair. I've had mine cut in the same style.
She has two beautiful children, the same age as mine. A gorgeous home on an exclusive estate. And a husband who's the old-fashioned kind who picks her up after a night out. Mine wouldn't even pick me up if I fell over in the street.
But then I get a call. Mia's voice on the phone is breathy, edgy. She's whispering, like she doesn't want anyone to hear. 'Lindy, I need your help. Listen to me, please.'
I'll help her. But only if she helps me . . .
This unputdownable psychological thriller full of twists is perfect for fans of B.A. Paris, Valerie Keogh, Lisa Hall, Nicola Sanders and Jane E. James.
Please note this is a revised version of the book previously published as Guilty.
