‘A fast-paced adrenaline rush of a book. I loved every minute.’ Keri Beevis, author of The Summer House

The truth can be a bitter pill . . .

Michelle can’t believe this is her life. That she’s escaped her dreary 9-to-5 in London and landed a PR job here. In the towering headquarters of Kimia Pharmaceuticals in Reykjavik, Iceland. It’s too bad her coworkers don’t want to be friends. They’re all young, beautiful — and determined to freeze Michelle out of their whispered conversations. But researcher Lars isn’t like the others . . .

Michelle steps into the elevator with him and is struck by the hunted look on his face. The doors close — and seconds later, they judder to a sickening halt. That’s when it happens. Lars locks eyes with Michelle. Thrusts a folder into her hands. This is evidence. Hide it . . . I discovered something and I’ll be silenced because of it. Michelle’s already run from her past. This time, she’ll be running for her life . . .

Fans of Harlan Coben, T.J. Brearton, Sarah Pearse, Alex Michaelides and Gillian McAllister will be hooked from the first page to the final twist.
