Kate Rhodes on Life Ruins

When everyone hides the truth, who do you turn to?

Becca has had a hard time of it, but she has finally got her life together. She has a nice little flat, a steady job pulling pints, and she's even seeing someone new: Andy, who keeps his private life to himself but is always good for a laugh.

And then Andy vanishes. When his body turns up on isolated Sunk Island, Becca learns Andy wasn't just another punter. He was a police officer, deep undercover, investigating a drugs ring that he believed operated out of Becca's pub.

Staggered by the betrayal, Becca turns to the only person she thinks she can trust: her foster mum, Kay. But Kay has problems of her own. She's just moved into a short-term let in the hopes of finding some peace and quiet. But peace and quiet are hard to come by on Sunk Island.

Before long, both women are drawn into a terrifying world of drugs, money, and death.

Perfect for fans of Ann Cleeves, Tana French, and Denise Mina—a story about the people we are and the people we aren't.
