From the author of That Woman, comes a brand new thriller that will have you at the edge of your seat right until the very end…
For Rose O'Connell, enrolling her seven-year-old son Charlie into the prestigious school across the road marks a bright new future for her family. One where she can finally forget the dark stains of her childhood.
The school is ruled by The Circle, an elite group of influential mothers with beauty and wealth. Every other mum would kill to join it – but to Rose's shock, it's her they invite.
Rose is so close to having the life she's dreamed of. But there's something peculiar about The Circle. What is each woman hiding beneath her perfect exterior? Why did one of their previous members take their own life? And why have they groomed plain, ordinary Rose, to take her place?
