Theo Barratt is out of options.
His mum's drowning in debt. His sister's dream of having a baby is slipping away. And Theo's stuck in a dead-end job with no way to help either of them. Then he meets Jessie West who is charming, reckless, and a child of a billionaire. Jessie has a proposal: fake a relationship, get married, and split the inevitable fortune. It's a con. A mere performance. But Theo tells himself he can pull it off. He can play the devoted husband for a few months, then walk away with enough money to fix everything.
But he's made a terrible mistake.
Because the Wests aren't just wealthy. They're dangerous. And the deeper Theo gets into this family, the more he realises: their fortune is built on secrets people have died to protect. Now Theo knows too much. He's trapped in a marriage he can't escape, bound to a family that destroys anyone who threatens them.
The only way out is death.
The question is: whose?
A psychological thriller with dark twists and turns.
Genre: Mystery
