A dark new thriller perfect for fans of Megan Miranda and Shari Lapena, where murder uncovers the hidden secrets among a group of friends and propels two women—a traumatized survivor and a Boston police detective—on a quest for truth. On a frigid January night, Molly Bradley hosts a celebration for her husband Jay’s fortieth birthday, surrounded by close friends. Laughter fills the air, and the atmosphere is warm with candlelight and wine. However, the next morning, Molly finds Jay dead in his office, his throat brutally slashed. Detective Rita Myers, seasoned by years on the Boston PD, recognizes that Jay's murder is not a random act of violence; she believes someone from their small circle is responsible. As Molly grapples with the loss of her husband, who was her anchor through her traumatic past, she begins to question everything she thought she knew about him. Shocking revelations force her to confront the possibility that Jay may not have been who he appeared to be, and that someone may be aware of her hidden horrors. Until Molly can discern who she can trust, she risks becoming the next victim.
