*********

Haven’t we all wanted to pretend everything is fine?

Jane doesn’t like confrontation. Given the choice, she'd prefer to focus on what’s going well, the good things in life.

But when her husband, Leon, is brutally attacked in the driveway of their home, in front of their two young children, Jane has to face reality. As he lies in a coma, Jane must open her eyes to the problems in her life, and the secrets that have been kept from her, if she’s to find out who hurt her husband – and why.

Maybe it’s time to face up to it all. Who knows what you might find . . .

Dark and delicious . . . Daly does it again!

L V Hay, author of THE OTHER TWIN

Effortless writing, brilliant storytelling, characters that you really root for (even the villains!) So cleverly done. Her books just get better and better.

Susi Holliday, author of THE DEATHS OF DECEMBER

Brilliant characters, fast paced and gripping.

Claire Douglas, bestselling author of LOCAL GIRL MISSING

An electrifying plot that keeps you guessing to the last.

Fiona Barton, bestselling author of THE WIDOW and THE CHILD

Yet another gripping, heartbreaking read from a brilliant writer.

Jill Mansell, author of YOU AND ME ALWAYS

I always know I'm in safe hands when I open a Paula Daly novel. She's a hugely talented writer - one of the very best domestic noir authors in the UK - and her ability to craft a twisty, compelling plot is masterful. Open Your Eyes was thrilling, compelling, clever and hugely entertaining. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough.
