In the first chapter of this gripping thriller, the reader feels a real shock. And the final chapter triggers such a strong emotional reaction that it’s impossible to forget.
Naomi has always dreamed of being the perfect mother, but three years ago her husband left, taking their one-year-old daughter, Freya, with him. He was afraid to leave his wife alone with the child after a “misfortune” incident, and now Naomi is trying to reunite her family. Her overnight stay with her daughter becomes a chance to regain her husband’s trust — but it ends in a terrible tragedy. In panic, Naomi lies about Freya’s disappearance, and that changes everything.
The police begin large-scale searches for the girl, journalists swarm the house, and her ex-husband is falling apart. Naomi realizes that her lie can only be worse than the truth, because she doesn’t remember what truly happened that night.
