A family murder case reopened by memory and new evidence

A long-closed family murder anchors this crime thriller: fifteen-year-old Joseph Flowers was believed to have killed his parents and baby brother before a car crash left him in a coma for two decades. His sister Eve, who survived the attack, has lived with that version of events ever since. As an adult, she is pushed to revisit what she saw when fresh evidence emerges, including rumours of a hidden level in a game Joseph made on the night of the killings. The novel builds its central question around whether the presumed killer was truly responsible—and what that possibility means for the only surviving witness.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adult crime-thriller readers interested in cold cases
  • Readers who enjoy mysteries built around unreliable or revisited memories
  • Fans of family secrets and evidence-led investigations

A Sunday Times Book of the Summer

IT WAS THE CRIME THAT SHOCKED A NATION.

The Flowers were the perfect family. Until the day fifteen-year-old Joseph shot dead his parents and baby brother whilst his younger sister Eve hid. The family home became known as 'The Red House', the place where the walls were covered in blood.

THEY THOUGHT THEY HAD THE KILLER.

No one knows why Joseph murdered his family: the following day he crashed his car and has been in a coma for two decades. Eve's always known he did it; she saw the crime, after all.

WHAT IF THEY WERE WRONG?

Now an adult, Eve is forced to re-examine her memories when disturbing new evidence about the case comes to light. Rumour has it that Joseph created a hidden level in his game that night, which might hold the key.

But if Joseph didn't do it, then the killer's still out there - and they're coming back for the girl who escaped...
