SECRETS, DESIRE, BLOOD... It all comes out in the wash

'Intelligent, perfectly observed, more-ish - I devoured it in two days' Poorna Bell, In Case of Emergency

'I was glued to this entertaining story of motherhood, marriage and friendship' Daily Mail

-------------

Keep your friends close and your neighbours closer...

Ciara has it all - a loving husband, well-behaved children and an immaculate home. But behind the filters, her reality is far from what it seems.

Mishti is stuck in a loveless marriage, raising her daughter in a country that is too cold, among children who look nothing like her.

Lauren is mostly happy, despite being judged for letting her kids run naked, wild and free.

Then Ciara is found murdered in her pristine home and suddenly everyone is a suspect.

Hushed whispers, secret rendezvous and bloody betrayals . . .

Everyone has their dirty laundry, but this goes beyond gossip.

This is all-out war.

A deliciously scandalous page-turner about the dark side of suburbia that peels back the layers of Ciara's insta-perfect life to reveal friendships gone rotten, manipulation masquerading as love and families riddled with lies . . .
