Which Sarah Havenant is you?

When an old friend gets in touch, Sarah Havenant discovers that there are two Facebook profiles in her name. One is hers. The other, she has never seen.

But everything in it is accurate. Photos of her friends, her husband, her kids. Photos from the day before. Photos of her new kitchen. Photos taken inside her house.

And this is just the beginning. Because whoever has set up the second profile has been waiting for Sarah to find it. And now that she has, her life will no longer be her own …

A serial killer is stalking your home town.

He has a type: all his victims look the same.

And they all look like you.

Kate returns from a post break-up holiday with her girlfriends to news of a serial killer in her home town – and his victims all look like her.

It could, of course, be a simple coincidence.

Or maybe not.

She becomes convinced she is being watched, followed even. Is she next? And could her mild-mannered ex-boyfriend really be a deranged murderer?

Or is the truth something far more sinister?

A girl is missing. Five years old, taken from outside her school. She has vanished, traceless.

The police are at a loss; her parents are beyond grief. Their daughter is lost forever, perhaps dead, perhaps enslaved.

But the biggest mystery is yet to come: one week after she was abducted, their daughter is returned.

She has no memory of where she has been. And this, for her mother, is just the beginning of the nightmare.

Acknowledgements

The more books I write the more I feel that the space dedicated to thanking those who have provided guidance, counsel, support and encouragement is too brief to truly acknowledge how important they are.

So, that said:

Thank you, Sarah Hodgson, for your wisdom and guidance on Seven Days and the other books we have worked on together. Your editorial insights have made them better than I could ever have done alone.

Thank you, Becky Ritchie. I always feel like you have my and the books’ best interests at heart which – along with your advice and unfailing support – is all one can wish for in an agent.

Thank you to the team at HarperCollins, in particular Kathryn Cheshire. I appreciate all the effort and dedication you put in.

Thank you to Tahnthawan and Barbara, once more vital early readers.

And thank you to my three sons. You are an inspiration.
