The Hidden Truth

A sweeping and emotional story of love, loss and family, from No. 1 bestselling author Louise Douglas.

One freezing night in January, Olivia Felicone's life is shattered when she learns her husband, Luca, has been killed in a car accident on the M1.

Desperate to escape her overwhelming grief, and with nothing else to lose, she returns north-east to the seaside town of Watersford, the place where they grew up together – and where Luca has been laid to rest.

A chance meeting with Luca’s married twin brother, Marc, leads Olivia to the realization that he is experiencing a loss as painful as her own and that, perhaps, she doesn’t need to be alone. But as they grow closer in an attempt to fill the space where Luca should be, their relationship may lead to explosive consequences . . .
