A claustrophobic and can’t-look-away thriller, this debut will have you on the edge of your seat with this sharp story you won’t ever forget. Perfect for fans of Liz Nugent's Strange Sally Diamond, Alice Feeney's Sometimes I Lie and Ashley Audrain's The Push.

‘Clever, original, and so addictive it should come with a warning. Unique and unforgettable, I loved this book’ Alice Feeney, Sunday Times multi-million-copy bestselling author
‘A bold, chilling debut that breathes new life into the psychological thriller’ Alex Finlay, bestselling author
‘Unhinged and addictive! A razor-tight psychological thriller that is as disturbing as it is impossible to stop reading’ Kelsey Cox, USA Today bestselling author

Imogene always wanted her freedom from her mother, and now she has it.

Mother Dearest, I am still trying to sift through the events of last night. It all feels very surreal. When I woke up this morning, I hoped it was a dream. I’d even accept it as a nightmare. But it’s not. I’m not with you and that alone feels catastrophic. I can’t believe we had our first fight!

But the tendrils connecting a mother to her daughter will always run deep.

Freedom is a funny thing. It’s something I wanted so badly, but now I’m wondering if what I had with you was better? Is the price of all of this going to be worth it? Do you miss me yet? What you said was hurtful, but I know I deserved it. I’m still processing my departure, it was rather sudden. I hope you know I haven’t been planning this. It just happened.

Imogene doesn't know how to handle her mother's estrangement. But then she meets the perfect man, the one even her mother would approve of. She just knows that once they get married, her mother will welcome her back with open arms. Except he has a wife and daughter.

As mother always said, a problem is only a problem until you solve it.
