Synopsis: She thinks it was murder. But if she can&’t trust herself, can anyone else? Nancy North and her boyfriend Felix are making the move across London to Harlesden. A new flat, a new area, a new start. Because while Nancy is fine now, she wasn&’t fine before. But settling into the new flat and meeting the new neighbours isn&’t helped by Felix&’s hovering concern. She is all right. She is sticking to her breathing exercises and doctor-prescribed help. So, when their new neighbour Kira Mullan is found dead by suicide, Felix is understandably worried about Nancy&’s frame of mind. But Nancy saw Kira the day before she died and she didn&’t strike her as someone who was suicidal – she was upset and angry, yes, but was she upset and angry enough to take her own life? Nancy is the only one convinced that there&’s more to Kira&’s death than has been discovered. But all the police and the neighbours see is a vulnerable woman who isn&’t sure of what she saw, and might even be imagining things . . . Is Nancy imagining things, or are there more questions that should be asked about the last days of Kira Mullan? 'A heroine you'll be rooting for on every page and a forensic study of gaslighting. Pure literary adrenaline&’ Erin Kelly
