Blurb:

It all started at a dinner party. . .

A domestic suspense debut about a young couple and their apparently friendly neighbors—a twisty, rollercoaster ride of lies, betrayal, and the secrets between husbands and wives. . .

Anne and Marco Conti seem to have it all—a loving relationship, a wonderful home, and their beautiful baby, Cora. But one night, when they are at a dinner party next door, a terrible crime is committed. Suspicion immediately lands on the parents. But the truth is a much more complicated story.

Inside the curtained house, an unsettling account of what actually happened unfolds. Detective Rasbach knows that the panicked couple is hiding something. Both Anne and Marco soon discover that the other is keeping secrets, secrets they've kept for years.

What follows is the nerve-racking unraveling of a family—a chilling tale of deception, duplicity, and unfaithfulness that will keep you breathless until the final shocking twist.

The Review 




A suspenseful tale with some thrilling plot twists.

What happened with Anne and Marco Conti is every parent’s nightmare. A baby missing! The author began the book with a bang and then never lets go. What looks like a simple plot keeps getting more and more convoluted hooking the reader completely. The story is multilayered where the characters have been etched very well. Every chapter of this book brought more twists and turns. I will give this book 3 stars out of five for in some places the story seemed very rushed especially toward the end. Other than that this was a gripping read. I would definitely recommend the book to all readers who are looking for a fast-paced, thrilling and suspenseful read.
