Description
A chilling work of psychological suspense and forensic memoir, this is a tale of a woman who reinvented herself so completely that her previous life seemed to vanish, and of a daughter who reclaims an abandoned past. Emma Brockes grew up hearing only pieces of her mother's story. After her death, Emma begins a dangerous journey into the land her mother fled from to unearth the truth.
