Josie Webb Has Had Enough

Summary

From the bestselling author of She Started It and The Five of Us comes another unexpected and captivating thriller.

“You look like you could use a friend.”

She sat down on the seat next to me, and I was instantly hit by the scent of her: fruity, fresh, expensive. Her coat—camel-colored and cozy—she’d already shrugged off and hung on the back of the chair. She was exactly the sort of woman who cultivated a mystery, a sense that she had secrets, important and juicy ones begging to be found out. Beautiful, of course, but in an understated way.

Looking back, it’s easy to see why she sat next to me that day. I was so desperate, so screamingly, eagerly bursting to be noticed. Crumpled tissue, red eyes, three empty glasses of wine and a fourth on the go, all the telltale signs of a sad woman who knows she is facing another night alone.

I didn’t know then what she was going to do.

If I had, I would have run like hell.
