‘An evocative story of coercive control … Amanda Jennings is a fantastic storyteller and she’s at her very best here: warm-hearted, darkly atmospheric, and wholly addictive' Lucy Atkins

‘A chilling, atmospheric and addictive tale of secrets, lies, and the abuse simmering within a seemingly perfect marriage’ Roz Watkins

Hannah and Nathan appear to have the perfect marriage – a beautiful Cornish house, a son, a dog.

Every evening, Hannah welcomes Nathan home with his favourite meals, soothing conversation and sex. But not everything is as idyllic as it appears. Nathan counts Hannah’s change when she goes shopping, checks her receipts, keeps her passport locked away, and Hannah seems happy to let him.

Ever since that night, years ago, when blood spilled on the rain-drenched dock, Hannah has been paying the price.

Keeping Nathan happy.

Keeping her secret.

But the past is going to catch up with them both…

A devastating exploration of the power of coercive control in a marriage where nothing is as it seems.
