She wrote a story that ruined a life. Now someone is determined to ruin hers . . .
When Rosie Anderton inherits her late aunt's house, it looks like the fresh start her family needs. Her marriage to Ben is strained, and money is tight. Her children are furious about the move, but for Rosie, the move offers something else: the possibility of writing again.
Then Julia Laurance walks back into her life.
Years ago, Rosie wrote a story that launched her as a young literary talent. But the story was based on Julia's vulnerable younger sister, Jane. The credit belonged to Rosie, but the damage belonged to Jane.
Jane has never fully recovered, and Julia has never forgotten.
As Ben questions what happened in the past and the children begin to see their mother through Julia's eyes, Rosie finds herself trapped in the old scandal.
But Rosie is a writer. She knows how to shape a story. She knows how to survive by turning other people's pain into material. And this time, Julia may have made a fatal mistake . . .
