THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER, AND RICHARD AND JUDY BOOK CLUB PICK

'Clever and compelling. You'll love THE CHILD' Clare Mackintosh, author of LET ME LIE

********

When a paragraph in an evening newspaper reveals a decades-old tragedy, most readers barely give it a glance. But for three strangers it's impossible to ignore.

For one woman, it's a reminder of the worst thing that ever happened to her.

For another, it reveals the dangerous possibility that her darkest secret is about to be discovered.

And for the third, a journalist, it's the first clue in a hunt to uncover the truth.

The Child's story will be told.
