WOULD YOU KEEP A SECRET FOR A STRANGER, IF IT MEANT BLOOD WAS ON YOUR HANDS? Celia, Juliette and Nadia are complete strangers with one thing in common: they have all been wronged by Ellis Cobain. A wealthy philanthropist on course for a knighthood, Ellis' public persona is bulletproof - but lurking beneath this veneer is a sinister side that only the women closest to him have seen. When they meet at a boutique hotel on the Cornish coast, brought together by the blind arrogance of their tormentor, they realise what connects them and form a pact: to blackmail him and free themselves from his grasp. But when he is discovered the next morning, murdered in cold blood, they are left scrambling. None of them knows who did it, and now they must desperately cover their tracks. Will they keep each other's secrets, now they are all implicated in his death? Will one turn on the others, when any of them could be next?
Autorenporträt
RACHEL ABBOTT was born and raised in Manchester. She trained as a systems analyst before launching her own interactive media company in the early 1980s. After selling her company in 2000, she moved to the Le Marche region of Italy. When six-foot snowdrifts prevented her from leaving the house for a couple of weeks, she started writing and found she couldn't stop. Since then her debut thriller, Only the Innocent, has become an international bestseller, reaching number one in the Amazon charts both in the UK and US. This was followed by several number-one bestselling novels including The Back Road, Sleep Tight and Stranger Child plus a novella, Nowhere Child, which was top of the Kindle Singles chart in the UK for over two years. She has now sold over five million books in the English language, and her books have been translated into more than twenty languages. In 2015 Amazon celebrated the first five years of the Kindle in the UK and announced that Rachel was its number-one bestselling independent author over this period. In 2018, And So It Begins, the first title in a new series featuring Detective Sergeant Stephanie King, was published in hardback by Wildfire Books - a Headline company. It was named by The Times as one of the best crime novels of 2018 and was top of the Amazon weekly chart for two weeks. The second book in the series, The Murder Game (The Invitation in the US), was released in April 2020, followed by Don't Look Away in 2023. The fourth thriller in the series, The Last Time I Saw Him was released on 15th August, 2024. Rachel Abbott now lives on the beautiful island of Alderney and writes full time.
