Thursday's Children

When psychotherapist Frieda Klein left the sleepy Suffolk coastal town she grew up in she never intended to return.  Left behind were friends, family, life and loves but, alongside them, painful memories; a past she couldn't allow to destroy her.

 

So when an old classmate appears in London asking Frieda to help her teenage daughter, long buried memories resurface.  But when tragedy strikes, Frieda has no choice but to return home and confront her past.  And monsters no one else believes are real . . .

 

Through a fog of alibis, conflicting accounts, hidden agendas and questionable alibis, Frieda can trust no one in trying to piece together the shocking truth, past and present.

 

When it comes to psychological suspense there's none better than Nicci French.  AndThursday's Children is Nicci French at her very best.
