About this ebook
'Left me chilled to the core' Harriet Tyce
You shared everything for nine months. But you don't know her at all.
When Ali meets Rebecca, she feels an instant connection. Both pregnant, with babies due the same day, Ali can't wait to share the highs and lows of motherhood with her new friend.
Rebecca is everything Ali wishes she could be - beautiful, confident, wealthy. But Ali senses in her the same loneliness she's been feeling since moving to the suburbs. Maybe they can help each other, and Ali won't feel so alone anymore.
Then their due date comes and goes, and Ali hears nothing for weeks. Worried about her friend, Ali tracks her down and is relieved to find Rebecca safe and well. But relief turns to shock when Rebecca denies ever meeting her... or ever having been pregnant at all.
A truly unputdownable story about friendship, motherhood and how far we'll go to protect the ones we love. Filled with tension and mind-blowing twists, fans of Claire Douglas, Gillian McAllister and CL Taylor will love The Due Date.
'Will keep you hooked to the very last page' CLARE EMPSON
'Perfect pace and an enthralling plot'' SAM HOLLAND
'Will keep you up all night' JO FURNISS
'I was utterly hooked' HEATHER CRITCHLOW
