Publisher Description
A gripping thriller from best-selling author J.A. Baker!
Welcome to Winters End...
Winters End should have been the perfect place for me and my husband Neil to start again. To leave the terrible secrets and guilt of our past far behind us.
But from the moment we arrived in the small, isolated community, it becomes clear to me that we are not welcome here. That someone wants us to leave…
I’m certain that everyone knows our secrets – knows who we really are. But how can that be?
Perhaps it’s my mind playing tricks on me. Just like before.
I know Neil thinks I'm paranoid. My thoughts spiralling. Again.
If only I had someone else to talk to. Another woman to confide in.
And that’s when I realise something far more terrifying.
I am the only wife at Winters End…and I could be the last…
Don't miss the brand-new thriller by J.A. Baker! Perfect for fans of Sue Watson, Valerie Keogh and K.L. Slater.

Customer Reviews
Could have been better
The plot of this story was great and well thought out by the author. The book, however, was hard for me to finish. I got tired and rather bored really fast of having to read too much about how the characters were feeling over and over again. The book was just unnecessarily “wordy” and too descriptive to be enjoyable …at least for me. I also wasn’t too happy with how the characters kept referring to the fact that they weren’t religious and were non believers. I just feel like that part didn’t need to be in there, as it downplays what is really important. Other than that, it was an okay book that some might truly enjoy reading.
