The One Who Got Away

Description

A compulsive and startling psychological thriller for fans of Girl on a Train and Gone Girl. Loren Wynne-Estes appears to have it all: she's the girl from the wrong side of the tracks who's landed a handsome husband, a stunning home, a fleet of shiny cars and two beautiful daughters ... Then one day a fellow parent taps Loren on the shoulder outside the grand school gate, hands her a note ... and suddenly everything's at stake. Loren's Facebook-perfect marriage is spectacularly exposed -- revealing an underbelly of lies and betrayal. What is uncovered will scandalise a small town, destroy lives and leave a family divided. But who is to be believed and who is to blame? Will the right person be brought to justice or is there one who got away? 'The One Who Got Away is the new Gone Girl and then some ... The twists and turns are masterful and the way she channels the voices of her characters is a dream to read. I can't recommend this book highly enough. Bring on the movie' Mia Freedman
