Story
She should have been safe. But she never came home. Kath has lived on the same London estate for decades. Lately she’s become friendly with the little girl next door, who is often left alone for hours while her mum is at work. They have a system. When Mina gets home from school to the empty flat, she knocks on the wall three times. Knock, knock, knock. I’m home safe and sound. But one day Mina’s knock doesn’t come. Kath raises the alarm and the police begin the search. Kath was the only person looking out for Mina—now she might be the only one who can bring her home.

Story
When I accepted a job working as a nanny for David and Julie and their young children, I was excited to be making my own way in the world. I bonded with baby Chloe instantly and would have done anything for her. She had David's thick, dark hair and smiling eyes. I fell in love with her and was excited for my future. But when a terrible mistake led to Chloe disappearing, I was instantly blamed. With no evidence, I was let go and I returned home to rebuild my life. Twenty years later and I am still haunted by what happened.

Story
As I sit in her dimly lit bedroom, surrounded by flickering candles, I feel the crushing weight of my daughter’s absence. It's been two years since Layla was murdered. The police have searched tirelessly for her killer, but they've found nothing–it's like whoever did it vanished into thin air. My once-perfect marriage is falling apart, we can hardly look at each other anymore. Our ten-year-old son Gale is struggling. He’s changed since she died. He’s more secretive and also… I can’t quite put my finger on it. They were so close, is this Gale coming to terms with her death?

Publisher's Summary
An utterly gripping and twisty psychological thriller for fans of Claire McGowan, K.L. Slater and Andrea Mara
‘I could not put it down until I finished the last page!!!’ Netgalley reviewer
‘A fantastic thriller which will have you racing to the very end’ Netgalley reviewer
Frances Brookman has just received the phone call every mother dreads. Her daughter Naomi has been in a life-threatening accident.
As she races to the hospital, Frances catches sight of a child in another car – a girl screaming for help.
It's a split-second thing and looks can be deceptive.
Should she follow the car and risk a delay getting to her daughter? Or do nothing and live with the knowledge that she didn’t help a child in need?
