THE UNRELENTINGLY GRIPPING, UNMISSABLE NEW THRILLER FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE WEEKEND AND THE HOLIDAY

When Joel returns home from a party early, he opens his kitchen door to find his whole world shattered; his brother fighting for his life, his stepmother unconscious at the bottom of the stairs.

With no evidence of anyone else having been in the house that night - and Joel's father missing from the scene - the police soon believe they have their prime suspect. Joel can only watch in horror as the case against his father begins to build.

But what's more important? Justice - or family?

As the police launch a manhunt, Joel embarks on his own desperate search to prove his father's innocence. A race against time to discover if a secret from the past has finally caught up with their family - and if he's ever really known his father at all . . .

Is Joel the only one who can see the truth? Or will blind loyalty lead him into terrible danger?
