It’s autumn and with crisp frosty weather and the leaves as colourful as they've ever been, Olivia and Jago are nestling into their life in Penbartha. Until local resentment about incomers and second home ownership is ignited by what seems to be an increasingly militant action group. A violent death makes the situation even more sinister.

I’ve struggled to build a good life for me and my son. But one moment will destroy everything. I hear my son cry out. I rush, half-dressed, to the window and see two men marching up my driveway.

Do not call the police.’ It brings back the wild panic I experienced all those years ago when I discovered I was pregnant after an intense holiday romance. I couldn’t tell the father. So I struggled as a single mother.

W momencie, w którym Harriet wciska przycisk odtwarzania, staje się dla niej jasne, że nie jest to fabuła przyszłej powieści. To wyznanie. Przyznanie się do makabrycznej zbrodni. Morderstwa. I wtedy rozpoczyna się gra.

In this complex thriller, Philippa Gregory deploys all her insight into what women want and what women fear, as Ruth confronts the shifting borders of her own sanity.
