Truth, memory, and lies.

How much should you lie for the man you love?
Can you really know your ex husband?
And how can suicide look like murder?

Just three of the questions which confront barrister Sarah Newby, as she struggles to return to work after a traumatic ordeal. Her client has already lied to her. Her ex-husband may be hiding dangerous secrets. Her daughter Emily faces threats she doesn't fully understand. And Detective Terry Bateson is investigating what appears to be a suicide - but the evidence tells a different story.

As Sarah fights to protect her lying client, her family, and her own sanity, she discovers that the truth depends not on her defendant's alibi, but on uncovering the real killer's whereabouts - and that person isn't even in court.

A masterful British legal thriller that keeps readers guessing until the last page.
