A mystery to read whilst the FIFA ⚽️ WORLD CUP 2026 is on!

Kayleigh survived a horrific attack, which happened 5 years ago. Her two friends suffered terrible fates, presumed dead, that is until one of them reappears; and Emma now has a rather different version of events to those described by survivor Kayleigh.

Kayleigh in the meantime is happily married to football superstar, Harry Turner, and has carefully curated her life in the limelight as a WAG, far from her trailer park origins back in America. Harry, though, was originally dating Emma, just to add more suspense to the unfolding events.

This is a very easy-to-read murder mystery that has a good sense of pace, offers a peak into the lives of the football elite and combines a mix of characters with some powerful backstories and plenty of secrets.

Nottingham gets a look-in and will be recognisable to those who know the city.
