Believe

About the book

She Can't Trust the Law. She Can't Trust Her Husband. Worst of All - She Can't Trust Herself.

'Propulsive and provocative, taut and timely - that rare thriller you can't read fast enough then can't debate long enough' A.J. Finn

'A properly good, tense thriller which had me guessing until the end' Jennie Godfrey
'A superior psychological thriller...gripping, clever and full of twists you won't see coming' Mark Edwards

----

Natalie has spent ten years trying to get over the twin set of events which changed her life forever.

The first: the moment her boss assaulted her. The second: the moment the jury declared him innocent - and her, a liar.

The memories continue to haunt Natalie, and in her attempts to block out the past, she often wakes up with no recollection of where she's been - or what she's done.

So when her husband, Ryan, gets accused of the same crime, Natalie comes perilously close to the edge.

Natalie wants to believe him. But when the body of the young woman who made the accusation is found in the woods near their house, Ryan becomes a prime suspect, and Natalie realises she can't trust anyone - herself included...
