'Absolutely gripping ... an addictive page turner.' Patricia Gibney

When Abby Jones, a young nanny from Corham, a small town south-east of Boston, is accused of fatally harming an infant in her care, defence attorney Heather Baxter fights to prove her innocence.

Heather, from the same small town, knows the case is not as clear-cut as the Assistant District Attorney claims and, with media attention focused on the trial and Corham, the stakes couldn't be higher.

But when Heather digs deeper, the shadows of her own past, and her mother's unsolved murder twenty-five years earlier, begin to surface with deadly consequences...

'A gripping courtroom drama with a courageous new heroine in Heather Baxter. Pacy, tightly plotted and full of suspense. The Hiding Game was worth the wait!' Andrea Carter
