One Bad Thing (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781788548342)

A twisty and chilling thriller about a woman who did one bad thing when she was young... and it's haunted her forever.

Hannah Godley is an agony aunt on a London radio show Queen of Hearts. She is warm and empathetic; a good listener. Just the sort of person you would entrust with your secrets. But when a woman called Diane phones in to tell a tragic story about her brother who killed himself after two people played a horrible prank on him, Hannah goes cold. She remembers Diane's brother well. In fact, he haunts her dreams. All because of that one bad thing she did when she was young...

Gradually, Diane insinuates herself into Hannah's life. Thinking she should keep her enemies close, Hannah decides to become her friend. But everything is shrouded in secrecy. Does Diane know what she's done? Is she after revenge? Or is she just a confused, sad woman who just wants to be friends with someone who cares?
