Who really killed the Primrose family?

The violent slaughter of the Primrose family while they slept shocked the nation.

The family's young live-in chef, Bill Kareama, was swiftly charged with murder and brought to justice. But the brutal crime scarred the idyllic town of Cambridge forever.

Seventeen years later, true-crime podcaster Sloane Abbott tracks down prison psychologist TK Phillips. Once a fierce campaigner for an appeal, TK now lives a quiet life with Bill's case firmly in his past. As Sloane lures a reluctant TK back into the fight, evidence emerges that casts new light on the Primroses - and who might have wanted them dead.

While the list of suspects grows, Bill's innocence is still far from assured. What will it cost Sloane and TK to uncover the truth?

Praise for J. P. Pomare's thrillers including The Wrong Woman:

'Pomare's gift for complex plots and drum-tight tension shines,' BENJAMIN STEVENSON

'A twisty small-town mystery with a protagonist I didn't want to let go,' IAN RANKIN

'There's no better storyteller in the thriller game than Pomare . . . Packed with mind games and sharp plot twists,' Herald Sun

'This grabbed me from the opening page and didn't let go,' MICHAEL ROBOTHAM

'Flawlessly plotted . . . breathless suspense . . . no-one delivers twists or turns quite like J.P. Pomare,' ANNA DOWNES

'Shocking, twisty and impossible to put down - all the things I've come to expect from one of Australia's most talented and prolific authors,' CHRISTIAN WHITE

'Edge-of-your-seat stuff. Deftly plotted, pacy, sharply written,' New Zealand Women's Weekly

'The thrill and fear arrive early and don't leave until the final pages,' CANDICE FOX

'A slick and enthralling page-turner in which the truth is slippery, a fast-flowing tale that never feels thin,' NZ Listener
