The perfect gripping, twisty suspense for fans of Netflix's You and Lisa Jewell's Watching You

This is not a love story...

Watching sunrises together should have been romantic.

But you were always inside with your wife, and I sat in your garden, in the shadows.

I thought you'd never know how I felt about you.

Until one night, I witnessed a terrible crime.

I wanted it to bring us closer together.

But now the secrets are tumbling out.

And they could tear everything apart...

A breath-taking suspense full of twists and turns - if you think you know how this ends, think again...
