ONE ROOM. TWO LIARS. NO WAY OUT. Susanna Fenton has a secret. Fourteen years ago she left her identity behind, reinventing herself as a counsellor and starting a new life. It was the only way to keep her daughter safe. But everything changes when Adam Geraghty walks into her office. She's never met this young man before - so why does she feel like she knows him? Adam starts to tell her about a girl. A girl he wants to hurt. And that's when Susanna realizes she was wrong. She doesn't know him. He knows her. And the girl he plans to hurt is her daughter.
