S.M. Govett read Law at Trinity College, Oxford, before qualifying as a solicitor in the City. After realising that didn't suit her, she started tutoring before turning her hand to writing, which she discovered was her true calling. She has since authored several bestselling YA novels, including The Territory trilogy and We Go On Forever. She also co-wrote the screenplay for the feature film, T.I.M., which was the no. 1 film on Netflix upon release. Her adult thrillers include Believe and When You Looked Away. She currently lives in London with her husband and three children.

I didn’t look away once from this taut, intelligent thriller. Tense, gritty and shocking it’s a frighteningly relatable psychological horror, expertly intertwined with a police procedural. This story is the very definition of a page turner and S. M. Govett is a master storyteller
