Juliet Gordon has spent years trapped in a marriage ruled by fear. When she wins a trip to Bangkok and her ailing father finally enters care, she seizes her moment to run. But freedom slips away when her husband Axel tracks her to the airport.
Eve Cross has just lost a job she never loved. Her adult children are at home, bickering and wearing her down. The offer of a year’s work at a New Zealand vineyard feels like salvation — a chance to reclaim the life she missed. Then she meets Juliet at Brisbane Airport: distraught, desperate, and begging for help. In a split-second decision, the two women swap tickets — and lives.
Across the Tasman, Olivia Rumble is hiding from the fallout of a terrible discovery. Her mother’s diary revealed a truth too dark to share, and New Zealand was meant to be her haven. But someone knows what she’s hiding, and they’re ready to expose it.
From suburban Brisbane to the chaos of Bangkok, from the vineyards of Hawke’s Bay to the wilds of Springbrook National Park, a deadly game of pursuit unfolds.
Can these women outrun the past — or will it find them, no matter where they hide?
