A new emotionally dark and unsettling read from the Sunday Times bestseller
Claire Douglas worked as a journalist for fifteen years, writing
features for women's magazines and national newspapers, but had
dreamed of being a novelist since the age of seven. She finally got
her wish after winning the Marie Claire Debut Novel Award with her
first novel, The Sisters.
She is a frequent Sunday Times bestseller and Richard & Judy Book
Club pick. Her books have sold nearly two million copies in the UK
alone, and The Wrong Sister was a Sunday Times number 2 bestseller
in hardback.
She lives in Bath with her husband and two children.
Spine-chilling . . . Douglas writes sensitively about dementia in
this heartbreaking novel about how far a desperate woman will go to
survive
