A brilliant new thriller from Jennifer Hillier, the award-winning author of the breakout novels Little Secrets and Jar of Hearts – when Paris Peralta is suspected of killing her celebrity husband, her long-hidden past threatens to destroy her future.
Paris Peralta is arrested in her own bathroom – she’s covered in blood, holding a straight razor, her dead celebrity husband in the bathtub behind her. But as bad as this looks, it’s not the inevitable murder charge that worries her the most. It’s her long hidden past, the past that she’s buried for decades, that threatens to destroy her present and any chance of a future.
Ruby Reyes – known as the Ice Queen, a convicted murderer sentenced to life in a trial that riveted Canada twenty-five years ago – is writing Paris, claiming to know the truth and threatening to reveal her past. When Reyes’s life sentence is unexpected commuted and released from prison, Paris is threatened in two directions – a murder charge in the death of a husband she loved and the truth behind a long-ago murder.
