A hit and run. A deadly secret. An accidental killer playing both sides.
Rushing his pregnant wife to hospital, Jack's perfect family life is shattered when, after accidentally hitting a child on a bicycle, he panics and races off to save his unborn baby.

At twenty-three-weeks pregnant, Jack's wife must avoid stress or risk losing their daughter. As a criminal defence lawyer, Jack knows that's impossible once he owns up to his crime.

Torn between his family’s survival and his need to do the right thing, Jack ultimately decides to confess, until close friend, DCI Clara Higgins, accidentally reveals another suspect has been detained.

So begins Jack's ever-increasing web of deception. By defending the man he knows is innocent, he can infiltrate the police investigation and buy his wife and baby the time they need. But as the lines of innocence and guilt blur, he finds himself lead down an even darker road heading for a deadly outcome.

A twisty, race-against-time thriller that you will devour in one sitting. Perfect for fans of T.M. Logan, Harlan Coben and Alice Feeney.
