Se para muitos o problema está em acordar e perceber que não se conhece muito bem a pessoa com quem se divide a cama, Flynn alerta: o inferno pode ser conhecê-la bem demais.

I’d stay in Ballyholme, Northern Ireland, to decide whether to forgive my cheating husband, Ryan. Ciara, my new best friend, would stay in our London home, free of charge, until I made up my mind.

But now I learn Ciara has evidence…evidence that my husband has committed murder. And she’s no longer answering my texts and calls. Is it some sort of blackmail plot? More worrying, if Ryan is indeed a killer, could he strike again?
