WHAT IF THEY WERE WRONG?
But how reliable a witness is a five-year-old? Now an adult, Eve is forced to re-examine her memories when disturbing new evidence about the case comes to light. Because if Joseph didn't do it, then the killer's still out there - and they're coming back for the girl who escaped...
