The Girl with the Fragile Mind

SHE CAN’T TRUST ANYONE . . . NOT EVEN HERSELF

'I think I might have done something bad.’

When a bomb explodes in the heart of London, the police suspect a terrorist group. But the pieces don't fit together and they struggle to find any suspects.

Still recovering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder after a terrible tragedy, Claudie fears that her recent black-outs are a sign that her symptoms are returning. So when her friend Tessa dies in the explosion, Claudie is gripped by the inexplicable certainty that she is involved in some way – if only she could remember.

Can Claudie get to the heart of what is real and what isn't . . . before something truly terrifying happens again?
