YOU LET HER INTO YOUR HOME. NOW SHE WON'T LEAVE.

Jade has the life she always wanted: a husband and three perfect children. She's happy. Except, recently that isn't enough. Her husband is never home, and when he is, he's distant. She's a constant source of disappointment to her mum, and even her children are starting to push her away.

Then she unexpectedly finds herself reconnecting with Christina, an old friend from university, and she starts to feel like herself again.

As the women become closer, and Christina needs a place to stay, Jade welcomes her into their chaotic family home. But when Jade discovers a suspicious text on her husband's phone, she soon she starts questioning those around her.

A twisting, tense and unforgettable story that will have you listening long into the night. Perfect for fans of Claire McGowan, Shari Lapena and B A Paris.
