** THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER ** The unputdownable new thriller from the queen of the one-sit read and No.1 bestselling author of Everyone Here is Lying‘I inhaled this book in less than 48 hours . . . What Have You Done? exceeded all expectations. LIZ NUGENT‘When the murderer is revealed, you’ll want to read it all over again.’ Woman & Home‘The queen of page-turners.’ ANDREA MARA--------Nothing ever happens in sleepy little Fairhill. The teenagers get their kicks telling ghost stories in the old graveyard. The parents trust their kids will arrive home safe from school. Everyone knows everyone. Curtains rarely twitch. Front doors are left unlocked. But this morning all of that will change. Because Diana Brewer isn’t lying safely in her bed where she belongs. Instead she lies in a hayfield, circled by vultures, discovered by a local farmer. How quickly a girl becomes a ghost. How quickly a town of friendly, familiar faces becomes a town of suspects, a place of fear and paranoia. Someone in Fairhill did this. Everyone wants answers. And one innocent question could be deadly. _______ Captivating. Publishers WeeklyThe novel’s emotional heft will linger with readers.
