About this ebook
She’s already killed her husband, after all.
**FROM THE GLOBAL BESTSELLING WRITER OF THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN and THE BLUE HOUR**
An accident may just have prevented a murder . . . Discover the addictive new thriller you won't want to put down!
On an ordinary day, Sam cycles to work and kills a man. A step into the road. A second too soon. That’s all it takes.
By nightfall, Alfie is dead, his wife widowed - and Sam is facing the rest of her life as an accidental killer.
When Sam and her sister Maggie search Alfie’s rucksack, they find a lunch box containing a few mushrooms, and think little of it.
But what if Alfie wasn’t innocent? What if, before he stepped into Sam’s path, he was on his way to do something unforgivable?
While Sam tries to move on from becoming a killer, she has no idea that her sister is moving in a different direction entirely. That she is hiding something dangerous.
Something that could very easily turn one death into two.
