Elena’s marriage is over. Alistair’s marriage is broken. Celia’s marriage is perfect. Someone is telling a lie.

One minute, Elena is a contented wife. The next, she is alone, with a younger woman in her place. Her new life begins on an idyllic street, where she meets her lovely neighbours, Alistair and Celia.

Alistair makes everything right, though his kind smile and calm ways hide something terrible. And he didn’t break his nose walking into a door.

Celia is helpful and fun; a willing listener and loyal friend. She is everything Elena needs. Of that, she makes sure.

Elena and Celia become close, and Elena and Alistair fall in love. But the perfect smiles hide desperate secrets. And desperate secrets lead to desperate crimes.

Though what’s the worst that could happen?

When someone plays dangerous games.
