Description
From the USA Today bestselling author of The Sister and The Gift, this is an unputdownable psychological thriller which asks how far we will go to create our perfect family.
Kat and her husband Nick have tried everything to become parents, and are on the point of giving up. Then a chance encounter with Kat’s childhood friend Lisa gives Kat and Nick one last chance to achieve their dream.
But Kat and Lisa’s history hides dark secrets.
And there is more to Lisa than meets the eye.
As dangerous cracks start to appear in Kat’s perfect picture of happily-ever-after, she realizes that she must face her fear of the past to save her family…
Louise Jensen is a #1 bestselling author of psychological thrillers. Her first two novels, The Sister and The Gift, were both international #1 bestsellers, and have been sold for translation to sixteen countries. Her debut novel, The Sister, was nominated for The Goodreads Awards Debut of 2016.
“Using her considerable talent for probing the dark corners of marriage and friendship, Jensen throws more wickedly effective twists into the mix than you can shake a stick at. Just about nothing is as it seems, and Jensen’s urgent, brisk writing style begs you to read just one more chapter. If the genuinely shocking finale asks readers to suspend disbelief a little too much, they’ll probably be having way too much fun to care. An addictive, darkly satisfying treat.”—Kirkus“Jensen is back with an intense, page-turning psychological thriller. Readers will whip through the pages as the narrative switches between past and present. With characters as desperate as they are damaged, Jensen creates a mood of hope versus doubt, which works extremely well in building and sustaining the panicked pace. Riddled with incredible, unforeseen revelations coupled with a creepy ending that could keep readers up at night, this novel is a sure bet for fans of psychological suspense and domestic thrillers.”—Booklist“Twist-filled plot.”Louise lives in Northamptonshire with her husband, children, madcap dog and a rather naughty cat. She loves to hear from readers and writers and can be found at LouiseJensen.co.uk, where she regularly blogs flash fiction.

If you like psychological thrillers, then definitely read this one…. you will not regret it! Five Stars!”—Stardust Book Reviews“Ever since I read Louise Jensen’s debut The Sister I’ve been a huge fan of her writing, but OMG The Surrogate, her latest and most adventurous book yet, plants her firmly on my list of “must-read” authors… I really think this is the author’s best book yet and it is definitely one of the best psychological thrillers I’ve read this year.”—The Book Review Cafe“Just as I thought the story was wrapping up BANG! I was hit again with another twist. Brilliant! It is chilling and sinister and yet heart-breaking and tragic, and I felt really emotional on finishing it… I can’t wait to read more by Louise.”—Bloomin Brilliant Books“Wow!

Highly recommend.”—Loud and Proud Book Junkie“I genuinely struggled to put this book down… I can’t recommend this book enough, it’s made it to my favourites… I can’t wait for more books to come from Louise Jensen… A well-deserved five stars from me.”—Emporio Epidemic
