The Woman Who Lied

Emilia Ward is just an ordinary mum living happily in suburban London with her husband and two children. She's also a bestselling crime author.
But when Emilia starts her tenth novel, life takes a disturbing turn: an incident straight out of one of her novels occurs in real life. Just a coincidence, she thinks.
Until it happens again.
Then someone she knows dies in the same way as a victim in the book she's currently writing . . .
Who is doing this? How do they know what she is writing? And what if Emilia and her family are next?
Claire Douglas's best yet. I loved the literary setting, the simmering tension and the book-within-a-book. It's gripping, atmospheric, and so original
