Summary

‘Gripping’ Observer ‘A one-sitting read’ Jane Casey
‘Compulsively readable’ Mail on Sunday

She doesn’t remember. He won’t let her forget.

From a distance, Claudia Castro has it all: the famous family, the trust fund, thousands of Instagram followers, and a spot in NYU’s freshman class. But then one drunken night everything changes.

Her memory hazy, Claudia cuts herself off from her family, seeking solace in a new friendship, but when the rest of school comes back from spring break, Claudia is missing.

What readers are saying:

‘This book kept me up way too late, but it was totally worth it!’

‘Intense, gritty . . . Clear your clendar as you’ll want to read this book in one sitting.’

‘A fast-paced read that gives the reader much to ponder.’

‘Timely, taut, and gripping – an absolute must-read.’
