About the book
Every Monday, Ellie, a 49-year-old woman, spends the day taking care of her beloved grandson Josh. Despite the joy that Josh brings her, Ellie's happiness is sometimes clouded by the memory of her husband's past affair. However, he has assured her that it is a thing of the past, and Ellie has chosen to focus on the positive aspects of her life.
One day, while Ellie is engrossed in watching over Josh, her husband receives a phone call from the woman with whom he had the affair. In that moment of distraction, Ellie briefly loses sight of her grandson. Little does she know that this momentary lapse will have life-altering consequences.
Unbeknownst to her family, Ellie carries a dark secret from her past. What initially appears to be an unfortunate accident may soon be viewed as something much more sinister, possibly even murder . . .
Written by the bestselling author of My Husband's Wife, this gripping novel is a must-read for fans of Lisa Jewell and Clare Mackintosh, offering a beautifully crafted story that will keep readers on the edge of their seats.
