'I read this book in one night and all I have is 3 words. Oh my god.' Reader Review

Even perfect mothers have secrets...

Leah. She's the perfect mum to ten-year-old Samuel, wife to loving husband Thomas, head of the PTA. But her closet is full of skeletons - and if the truth gets out, her world could be destroyed.

Annie. She's the gangster's moll with a brain. She might be a woman, but she's not afraid to get her hands dirty to play the men at their own game. But what no one knows is the devastating secret haunting her.

Terry. He's the king of Glasgow gangland, working his way up from estate to mansion. From drugs to guns, there's nothing he won't stop at to grow his dirty money. He might be a hard man, but his weakness is women.

As their three stories collide, the lives of each will never be the same. Because even perfect women hide dark secrets... Don't they?
