About this product

Product Information

A psychological thriller about best friends, secrets and the past coming back to haunt you . . . The old Victorian pier was once a thing of beauty. It's also where twenty-one-year-old Sophie Collier vanished eighteen years ago. Francesca has spent the last twenty years haunted by the disappearance of her best friend. But when she receives a phone call from Sophie's brother saying that a body has been found, she knows she can't keep hiding from what happened. With her own secrets to keep, Francesca doesn't relish the idea of digging up the past or returning to Oldcliffe. But it is time to go back to where she grew up, and it looks like she isn't the only one there hiding truths.

  • Sheer brilliance

    Wow this author is one of the best crime thriller writers ever! This is the second book I have read of Claires and it was even better than the first one. Frankie has fled the seaside town of oldcliffe, where her best friend Sophie vanished one night and was never found. Her body was never found until now in 2016 and Sophies brother, Daniel rings her to say that part of her body has been discovered and he wants Frankie to return to her home town and help him discover who killed her. Frankie agrees to spend a week in Oldcliffe-on-sea and Daniel rents out an apartment for her, which turns out to be really spooky. She regularly see's the ghost of Sophie and lots of weird things happen to her making her feel as though she is losing her mind. The chapters go from Frankie in 2016 to Sophie in 1997, leading up to her death. I just can't stress enough how good this book is. The twists and turns are amazing and the ending is jaw droppingly brilliant.
