About
FBI Agent Jim McGee is weeks away from retirement when he's handed one last case: a devastating fire at an isolated lake house that's killed almost a whole family. One of the survivors, Kate Marshall, knows exactly what happened, but from the moment the young mother starts to speak, something feels wrong.
Under the harsh lights of the interview room, the weight of tragedy hangs in the air. With four victims and one suspect, this should be an open-and-shut case. But the things she's saying happened are impossible—so why is she saying them? And if they're not impossible, then it's the whole of McGee's career that makes no sense.
When the grieving woman falls silent, McGee's unease grows. Just tell me what happened, what really happened, he almost begs.
The woman's eyes, filled with an unreadable emotion, lock onto his. You want the truth, Agent McGee? she whispers. I'll tell you, but you won't believe me. Even my family thought I was imagining what my son said. And now... they're all gone.
From the first page to the last, you won't be able to put this book down. A one-of-a-kind thriller from the number-one bestselling author of “Little Ghosts” and “The Things You Find in Rockpools.”
