A BRAND NEW addictive, edge of your seat thriller from Gemma Rogers, the BESTSELLING author of The Honeymoon. Perfect for the fans of Shari Lapena and Lisa Jewell.

Some retreats promise renewal. This one demands survival.

After discovering messages to another woman on her fiancé James’s phone, Karin is left reeling. What do they mean for her—and their eighteen-month-old daughter Isla’s future?

James dismisses the messages as meaningless words to his first love, insists he has remained faithful, and books a weekend away in Madeira, hoping the break will bring them closer together after a freezing January at home.

But James has neglected to mention one detail: he’s enrolled them in a therapy led group couples’ retreat in a villa.

Blindsided but an advocate for therapy, Karin throws herself into the experience, hopeful it could help repair their fractured relationship. Yet as she commits to the process, James begins to pull away.

Madeira promises them a chance to rebuild. Instead, therapy exposes a truth more dangerous than infidelity. James isn’t just fighting for their future—he may be fighting for their escape from the island.
