Such a brilliant and cleverly crafted idea. A novel which will make you wonder what others are really thinking . . .
Praise for IF YOU KNEW HER by Emily Elgar, the gripping, emotional novel about a young woman fighting to survive and the shocking secret that could destroy her - perfect for fans of Clare Mackintosh and Caz Frear:
Emotionally charged and tautly plotted, Emily Elgar's debut is a stunning example of psychological suspense
A wonderfully insidious build-up of tension
