I took you, Becca. You are not my daughter.

Becca Wall loves her family, so when her mother says these words, they strike her to the core. But then, her mum is ill, she has Alzheimers, so this can't be the truth ... can it?

But then a woman disappears. Her name is Katie Collins and the day she vanished she was looking for Rebecca Wall. The police call Becca in for questioning but what can she tell them? She has never met Katie Collins. She has never heard of her.

So why was Katie looking for her? As Becca starts to investigate, things take a dark turn. Someone knows the truth and it's clear they will stop at nothing to hide it...

A gripping, fast-paced psychological thriller, perfect for fans of T. M. Logan and B.A Paris.

Previously published as Familiar Strangers.
