The Perfect Patient

An innocent young girl? Or a dangerous killer? The first time I meet Jade, I can’t help but be impressed by her. Young, smart and confident, she’s everything I wish I had been at 18. But Jade isn’t any ordinary teenager - she’s accused of murdering a man twice her age. And it’s my job to find out the truth. As we settle down to talk, I sense something change in Jade - a hardness to her answers and an unwillingness to co-operate. She claims she didn’t kill him, but I’m not sure I believe her. When she starts skipping sessions, I visit her family home unannounced and I immediately regret it. Her father makes it clear I’m not welcome, her mother seems to stay in the shadows. What are they hiding? As Jade begins to open up, her family suddenly halt the sessions, and I know I’m close to finding out the truth. Then I spy a late night visitor standing outside my little cottage watching my every move. What is the secret someone is trying to stop from coming out? And could I have put myself in unthinkable danger? This absolutely gripping psychological thriller will have you hooked from the very first page to the last jaw-dropping twist. Perfect for fans of The Housemaid, The Girl on the Train and The Perfect Marriage. What readers are saying about Luana Lewis:’An amazingly gripping and dark read, and one you will certainly devour in a sitting or two.
