Una collega affidabile. Un’amica affettuosa. Una madre e una moglie piena di premure. Neve Connolly è tutte queste cose. Un giorno, in un elegante appartamento a Covent Garden, Neve trova un uomo, il suo amante, morto. E non chiama la polizia. Come tutti, Neve commette degli errori. Alcuni sono impercettibili, fatti senza pensarci troppo. Altri sono enormi. Altri ancora sono deliberati. Neve è un essere umano, dopo tutto. Non così perfetto come tutti dicono. Ma gli errori hanno conseguenze. E quando uno di questi si rivela davvero grave, la catena degli sbagli si trasforma in una spirale inarrestabile, fuori controllo, che inchioda Neve alle sue bugie. E mette in pericolo non solo lei, ma le persone che le sono più care. Suo marito. I suoi amici. Sua figlia Mabel, già così fragile, così provata dalla vita. Anche se volesse, Neve non può più tornare indietro. La verità è adesso più pericolosa di una menzogna. Una bugiarda. Un’adultera. Una minaccia. Neve Connolly è tutte queste cose. Ma potrebbe essere anche un’assassina? Un giallo ad alta tensione da una firma internazionale del thriller psicologico, con milioni di copie vendute, che ancora una volta conquista i suoi lettori con un perfetto gioco di prestigio di duplicità e suspense.

A novel about love, music and coming to terms with the past, from the author of the international bestseller The Rosie Project. On the cusp of fifty, Adam Sharp has a loyal partner, earns a good income as an IT contractor and is the music-trivia expert at quiz nights. It’s the lifestyle he wanted, but something’s missing. Two decades ago, on the other side of the world, his part-time piano playing led him into a passionate relationship with Angelina Brown, who’d abandoned law studies to pursue her acting dream. She gave Adam a chance to make it something more than an affair—but he didn’t take it. And now he can’t shake off his nostalgia for what might have been. Then, out of nowhere, Angelina gets in touch. What does she want? Does Adam dare to live dangerously? How far will he go for a second chance?
