About the Book

'Cracked is a perfect book. I loved it. Sensitive, poignant and tender - all delivered in the grip of a white-knuckle whodunnit' - Rachael Blok, bestselling author of The Scorched Earth

Seven patients. One dark secret.

PHILLIP WALTON HAS BEEN MURDERED.

Jenny Nilsen hasn't seen her former psychiatrist Phillip since she left the Hillside Psychiatric Unit eight years ago. She wanted to forget everything about her time there, so she kept her secrets buried deep. Especially from her new husband.

But now the police are knocking at her door with evidence of her involvement in Phillip's death and everything she's kept hidden is starting to spill out. Jenny desperately needs to speak to old friends, and old enemies, from those dark years at Hillside to clear her name before more of her past is unearthed and her new life is destroyed.

Because they are the only ones who know what really happened at Hillside. About the secret that Phillip kept for them all.

THIS IS NOT THE FIRST MURDER.

Cracked is the blisteringly tense, deliciously dark and twisty debut thriller which is perfect for fans of THE SILENT PATIENT and THE WOMAN IN THE WINDOW.

*Trigger Warning: This novel deals with issues of self harm and suicide that some readers may find upsetting*
