***Available to pre-order now***

In the sleepy seaside sleepy town of Waverly, Rosie and Seb Kent are happily married. Now that Seb has achieved his dream of becoming headmaster of the local school, their lives couldn't be any better.

Then Abi arrives.

Abi, a young, single mother, has come to Waverly for a fresh start. She plans to reinvent herself and give her children a new life.

Then she sees Seb.

As their complicated hidden past threatens to destroy them both, they try their hardest to keep it contained. But in a small town, secrets don't stay hidden for long and soon, what should be their private business becomes a very public scandal. How far will everyone - them, their families and the whole community - go to protect everything they hold dearest?

Reviews
Praise for Emily Edwards * : *
It is hard to imagine a more timely novel. A fascinating exploration of all sides of a particularly knotty, politicized issue. * Jodi Picoult, NYT bestselling author of WISH YOU WERE HERE *
Controversial, addictive and clever, and the characters are so multi-layered and complex they are wholly believable. * Woman & Home *
Fans of Liane Moriarty will love it! * Stella *
Will have book clubs across the country in hot debate! Brilliant. * Clare Mackintosh *
