Summary
Single mum Joanna Critchley and her son Alfie are new arrivals in the small town of Flinstead-on-Sea. Hoping to fit in with the other women in her book club, Joanna passes on a rumour she heard at the school gates and never intended to spread: that a notorious child-killer is living in the area under a new identity. Sally McGowan was just ten years old when she stabbed little Robbie Harris to death forty-eight years ago. No photos of her exist since her release as a young woman. So who is the supposedly reformed killer who now lives among them? How dangerous can one rumour become? And how far will Joanna go to protect her loved ones from harm, when she realizes what it is she's unleashed?
