Synopsis

‘The explosive ending took my breath away.' C.L. Taylor 
The trouble with secrets is that they never stay secret for long… 
Annie Howarth is living an anxious life in an anxious town. Her mining community in South Yorkshire is feeling the pinch and tensions are running high. Then a murdered girl is found on the moors and the agitation in the community is pushed to a dangerous breaking point.  
As the wife of the chief of police, Annie should feel safe – her husband William can be secretive, but she’s sure whatever he's hiding is for her own good, isn’t it? 
But Annie is keeping her own secrets. Ten years ago, the man she loved was ripped from her life in a scandal that still haunts them both, and now his return will put her family, her marriage, even her life, at risk.
