In the Wake

"Absolutely brilliant! . . . Once you start this one you won't want to put it down . . . Great!" —Amazon reviewer, five stars

When a body is discovered in East London, one woman's murky past comes to light . . .

When remains are found floating in London's Royal Albert Dock, successful public relations expert Kay Christie is sent to quiet the media—but things get complicated when it emerges that she knew the victim.


As events spiral out of control, Kay learns that those close to her may be harbouring another secret: the truth about a missing girl. Can Kay crack the mystery before her life unravels and she risks losing everything?

In the Wake questions whether we can ever truly leave our pasts behind and explores the lengths that we will go to protect the people that we love.
