The perfect couple. The perfect crime?

`Deftly paced, elegantly chilly thriller... Steadman brings similar qualities of wit, timing and intelligence to this novel... a proper page-turner' New York Times

Erin is a documentary filmmaker on the brink of a professional breakthrough; Mark a handsome investment banker with a bright future. They seem to have it all. But do they?

On a dream honeymoon to the tropical island of Bora Bora, Mark takes Erin scuba diving. Everything is perfect. Until they find something in the water. Something that will change their lives forever.

Erin and Mark decide to keep their discovery a secret. No one else need know; they trust each other implicitly.

But someone else does know. And in situations like these, it is far better to trust no one, not even those closest to you ...

Set to be the blockbuster read of the summer, this is an unmissable, fast-paced, jaw-dropping thriller from a debut writer destined for great things.

`A wild, page-turning ride! It's the perfect beach read!' Reese Witherspoon (Reese's Book Club x Hello Sunshine book pick)
`Worthy of Hitchcock' Sunday Times
`Pure adrenaline: I swallowed this book whole' Erin Kelly, author of He Said, She Said
`A thriller for our times' Louise Candlish, author of Our House
`A stunning debut. Superbly written, clever and gripping' BA Paris, author of Behind Closed Doors
`A fascinating moral dilemma' Gillian McAllister, author of Everything but the Truth
`It was the relatability of Erin's voice that set it apart from so many other thrillers as it automatically got me thinking `What would I do in her position?' Caz Frear, author of Sweet Little Lies
`This debut's opening hook, which jumps ahead in the story to reveal a shocking outcome, teamed with Erin's spunk and the threat of Russian mobsters, creates irresistible suspense-of both the what-will-happen and the how-did-that-happen varieties'
