Perfect for you if...

You love thrillers where the protagonist is unreliable and you have to piece together what actually happened.
You've watched the Netflix film and want to see how the book gets under your skin differently.
You want a page-turner that doesn't require you to think too hard, just react hard.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer mysteries with clever detective work and logical clue-gathering.
You get frustrated when characters make obviously stupid decisions to move the plot forward.
You want deep character development over plot twists.

About this book

Orla and Kate are lifelong best friends who take an annual weekend trip together. This year they travel to Lisbon, looking forward to exploring the city and enjoying time away. After their first night out, Orla wakes to find Kate missing. When the police offer little help and Orla's memories of the evening are unclear, she becomes responsible for finding her friend. As she retraces their steps through Lisbon, Orla uncovers a series of discoveries that have serious consequences for her life. The truth about what happened that night may not be what it initially appears to be. Sarah Alderson is a USA Today bestselling author.
