I gaze across the candlelit table into the eyes of the man I love. It's our anniversary dinner, a celebration of our marriage, of how far we've come. But within hours our romantic date has ended in murder...

When I wake in a hospital bed, blinking painfully under the blinding white lights, I hear a voice saying there has been a car accident. My heart misses a beat when they say I was driving-and that I've killed someone.

My panic turns to relief when I see my husband rush into the room. But then he nods along with the officers explaining the charges against me.

I can't breathe. I know I wasn't the one driving. Tom was.

I'm told I just don't remember because of the shock. But when I catch Tom's eye, I don't see the protective, honest man I've loved for five years. He's now a stranger to me.

As I drift in and out, I hear Tom inventing stories about my violent history and drinking. The love of my life has betrayed me, and I must find out why.

Before I lose my freedom-or my life...

An absolutely gripping psychological thriller packed with jaw-dropping twists. For fans of The Doctor's Wife, The Marriage and The Housemaid.
