SHE'S ON A REMOTE ISLAND. DEFENDING A MURDERER. BUT SHE REMEMBERS NOTHING.

'Unputdownable' Sophia Hannah

'Mind-blowing, audaciously inventive' Chris Whitaker

'Totally recommend. Stuart Turton meets Agatha Christie' Sarah Moorhead

'A heady, ambitious mix of courtroom drama and dystopian mystery' Daily Mail

Lila Dalton finds herself in the middle of a courtroom as the barrister for a man accused of a terrible crime. She has no memories of her life before this moment.

Outside, on the strange island where she is staying, things are even more unnerving: hostile locals, tapped calls, threats slipped under her hotel door. Hints from mysterious sources suggest that someone from her forgotten past is in danger - but are the threats genuine? As the trial progresses, Lila must decide who and what she can trust, and whether that includes herself...
