THE CHILLING AND ADDICTIVE NEW THRILLER THE GLOBAL NO.1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN AND A SLOW FIRE BURNING.

Eris, an island with only one house, one inhabitant, one way out.
Unreachable from the Scottish mainland for twelve hours each day.
Once home to Vanessa. A famous artist whose notoriously unfaithful husband disappeared twenty years ago.
Now home to Grace. A solitary creature of the tides, content in her own isolation.
But when a shocking discovery is made in an art gallery far away in London, a visitor comes calling.
And the secrets of Eris threaten to emerge . . .
