The Child

‘Clever and compelling. You’ll love THE CHILD’ Clare Mackintosh

The bestselling author of 2016’s breakout debut, THE WIDOW, returns with her new dark, unputdownable thriller.

********

When a paragraph in an evening newspaper reveals a decades-old tragedy, most readers barely give it a glance. But for three strangers it’s impossible to ignore.

For one woman, it’s a reminder of the worst thing that ever happened to her.

For another, it reveals the dangerous possibility that her darkest secret is about to be discovered.

And for the third, a journalist, it’s the first clue in a hunt to uncover the truth.

The Child’s story will be told.
