A contemporary psychological thriller in the style of Ruth Rendell, from one of today’s most versatile and compelling storytellers.

It was easy for Elizabeth. She married the man she loved, bore him two children and made a home for him which was the envy of their friends. It was harder for Ruth. She married Elizabeth’s son and then found that, somehow, she could never quite measure up ... Isolation, deceit and betrayal fill the gaps between the two individual women and between their different worlds. In this complex thriller, Philippa Gregory deploys all her insight into what women want and what women fear, as Ruth confronts the shifting borders of her own sanity. Laying bare the comfortable conventions of rural England, this spine-tingling story pulses with suspense until the whiplash double-twist of the denouement.

'Fiendishly plotted ... this is Gregory at her most chillingly convincing.'
Cosmopolitan

'This brilliant psychological chiller ... is utterly, nail-nibblingly plausible. You will relish its explosive climax and be gripped through to its final, superb, double-twist finish.'
Daily Mail

'Insidiously gripping.'
The Independent

'This story of a woman's descent into domestic abuse hasn't lost any relevance since its 1997 publication. Narrator Alix Dunmore nails each character with her varying pitch and English accents. Young Ruth is struggling in her news radio career and in the early years of marriage to the overconfident and spoiled Patrick. Eventually, she's drawn out of their Bristol flat and ensconced in the little house down the lane from his parents' manor. In a formal tone and accent, Patrick's mother, Elizabeth, welcomes her ... In this slow burn of a thriller Ruth's choices are stripped away so slowly that she hardly notices until she's in over her head. The anguish in Dunmore's voice turns to anger and chilling resolve, bringing Ruth to a cruel end.'
