An island full of secrets. A woman on the run. What should she fear most? The man she is fleeing, or what awaits her on Purity Island?

I left my home, Purity Island, eighteen years ago when my best friend Lizzie Kent took my babysitting shift and never came home. She was murdered, and I have lived with the guilt ever since.

But now in a weird twist of fate, I return, hoping for a fresh start after inheriting my aunt s crumbling guesthouse, eager to escape a bad relationship. I should ve known the past wouldn t let me go.

Sam Kent hasn t forgotten me. Lizzie was his sister, and he blames me for her death.

His hatred cuts deep, but it s not just Sam I need to fear. Strange things have been happening, things that feel like warnings. Someone doesn t want me here.

Is it Sam, still consumed by grief?
Or has my violent ex found me at last?
Or is there someone else hiding in the shadows who has a more sinister agenda?
