The Woman Who Lied




The gripping new novel from the author of the Sunday Times number 1 bestseller The Girls Who Disappeared

Emilia Ward is just an ordinary mum living happily in suburban London with her husband and two children. She's also a bestselling crime author.

But when Emilia starts her tenth novel, life takes a disturbing turn: an incident straight out of one of her novels occurs in real life. Just a coincidence, she thinks.

Until it happens again.

Then someone she knows dies in the same way as a victim in the book she's currently writing . . .

Who is doing this? How do they know what she is writing? And what if Emilia and her family are next?
