'Hugely gripping' ABIGAIL DEAN

'A unique new voice' ERIN KELLY

'Full of surprises' LESLEY KARA

--------------

She's not there to save her friend.

She's there to silence her.

When nurse Laura arrives at her old best friend's death bed, it's not out of compassion - it's out of fear. Her enigmatic friend Sadie is dying, and with her last breath, she might destroy everything.

Sixteen years ago, tragedy tore their group of nursing students apart. And Laura has spent every moment since then ensuring the truth never sees the light of day.

But as Sadie fades, the past refuses to stay buried. And Laura is about to learn: The dying don't always go quietly.

And some confessions are worth killing for.

'Chilling' FORBES
