A DOUBLE LIFE

Flynn Berry

The award-winning author of Under the Harrow returns with another gripping, intense, stunningly written novel of psychological suspense
When Claire was eight years old, she was at the scene of a shocking crime. On a cold winter night, her nanny was murdered and her mother attacked in their London home. The police found her father's car near the Channel, bloodstains on the front seat. He has been missing ever since. Nearly thirty years later, Claire's carefully calibrated existence is shattered when the police tell her they have located him. She doesn't know if her father is a murderer or a wronged man, but she is determined to finally learn the truth, no matter what it takes.

Breathtaking...As shocking as it is satisfying... Berry writes thrillingly about women raging against a world that protects cruel and careless men.

A thrilling page-turner... With forensic precision, Berry picks apart lives derailed by violence and the ways in which class privilege protects the guilty.
