"It only takes a day for your whole life to unravel...
As Jessica Walsh sits in a café, a stranger tells her a story that feels alarmingly familiar.
She has a sister who's an addict, just like Jessica. A father growing desperate to help. There's one crucial difference, though: Jess knows her dad would never resort to violence to fix the 'problem.'
Later that morning, Jess receives several hurried voicemails from her sister: Vicky needs her. Now.
When Jess gets home, Vicky is gone, her father insisting it's all part of a plan to get her clean – but Jess can't forget that woman from the café, the strange coincidence of their meeting. It had comforted her earlier. Now it feels like a warning.
But who laid the trap?

"The Kindle Best seller returns with the first in a gripping new crime series.
A Stranger. A promise. A deadly game.
If it looks too good to be true, it probably is. Even justice.
Danny and Sharon Evans are desperate for answers. Why did their seemingly happy daughter try to take her own life?
When a stranger approaches Danny, saying he knows who’s to blame, Danny is tempted, despite Sharon’s reservations. And when his new friend offers them revenge, how can he walk away?
But little does Danny know he is being invited to play a terrible game. A game that won't just change lives – it will end them.
DI Joel Norris knows this is no ordinary case when two seemingly unconnected murders hit his desk within a matter of days. But how far is he willing to go to solve the puzzle?
Dark, gripping and unforgettable, The Friend will keep fans of Harlan Coben and Mark Billingham on the edge of their seats."
