Publisher's summary

Last night I dreamt about the past for the first time in years. I thought I was over it. I thought I’d finally learned to block it out. But I’m right back there, all over again, inside the house. The room is dark, the corners black with shadow. Then, the scream...

When Louise Taylor is hit by a car as she cycles home in the rain following a fight with her boyfriend, she’s left hurt, frightened, and confused. And worse, something tells her it wasn’t an accident.

Housebound in her cramped apartment while she recovers, flashbacks to her traumatic childhood begin to resurface, threatening her hard-won self-control. Desperate to keep busy and distract herself, she hires Edward - a friend of a friend - to repaint her shabby living room and, hopefully, keep the past at bay.

But when Edward arrives - quiet, considerate, and handsome - Lou instantly feels like they’ve met before, that she can trust him. Tired of carrying the guilt alone after all these years, Lou tells Edward her secret. And to her surprise, he doesn’t pull away. He doesn’t gasp or grimace or preach about what she did. And Lou is so relieved to finally be free of this burden at last.

Until she learns that Edward has a secret of his own. One he’s been waiting a very, very long time to tell...

A gripping domestic drama from a USA Today best-selling author full of twists and turns, and with a very unexpected ending. Fans of Amanda Prowse, Kerry Fisher, and Jodi Picoult won’t be able to stop.

Absolutely loved it!

I really enjoyed this story. Deeply emotional, a bit fantasy woven but still a great listen. Ending left me hoping there would be another book!

Psychological suspense or science fiction?

This book starts out as a tense psychological thriller. Unfortunately, it ends with a twist from the Twilight Zone. Wish I had been warned before I invested my time in the story.
