Don''t trust him. It wasn''t me. It couldn''t have been me.
Meet Evie, a young woman who has fled with her uncle to the isolated New Zealand beach town of Maketu. Jim says he''s hiding her to protect her, that she did something terrible back home in Melbourne. Something Evie can''t remember.
But Evie isn''t her real name. And Jim isn''t really her uncle.
In a house that creaks against the wind, Evie pieces together the events that led her here. And as her memories return, she starts to wonder if Jim is really her saviour . . . or her captor.
A compulsive, twist-filled debut that explores the fragility of memory, perfect for fans of Sharp Objects, Room and Top of the Lake.
