Publisher Description

A perfect wedding. A village full of lies. A best man who might not live to give his speech.

JP swore he’d never return to the small Cornish village where he grew up. After Lucy’s body washed up on the beach, someone made sure JP knew he wasn’t welcome. A scrawled warning. A postcard shoved through his door. If you want to keep your secret, leave now.

Now, ten years later, he’s back—the best man for his childhood friend. Trapped in St Hellion for a week, he feels it immediately: the stares, the closed doors, the past pressing in.

Someone here knows what really happened to Lucy. Someone who never wanted him to return. And, as the wedding gets closer, JP realises the past isn’t just haunting him—it’s hunting him.

Before the speeches are over, the truth may come out. And in this small town, some secrets are worth killing for. Who will survive this wedding day?
