She’ll never forget… I’ll never forgive.
People always notice my daughter, Isobel. How could they not? Extraordinarily beautiful… until she speaks.
An unsettling, little-girl voice, exactly like a child’s, but from the mouth of a full-grown woman.
Izzie might look grown-up, but inside she’s trapped. Caught in the day it happened… the day that broke her from within. Our family fell apart that day, and we never could pick up the pieces.
A dark, unsettling, and haunting novel about secrets, lies, the past, and a tragic event from the past can completely change the lives of so many people, especially Izzy, who is left trapped in in a childlike state in an growing body.
It is told from two alternative points of view, that of Eve and Claire.
A haunting domestic drama about families and secrets, perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn, Shalini Boland and Lisa Jewell.
