An exhilarating debut novel that follows one woman’s hunt for the truth when she realizes she might have married a killer
They said her death was a tragic accident. And I believed them...until now.
Carmen is happily married to Tom, although she knows she’ll always live in the shadow of another woman—the mistress who ended his first marriage: Zena. Mercurial, mesmerizing, manipulative Zena—a woman who, Carmen begins to discover, had the potential to incite the darkest of emotions. Zena, who drowned in the sea late one night.
Zena seems ever-more present, even in death, and when Carmen unknowingly stumbles on evidence that her husband has not been telling her the whole truth, she can’t shake her unease. As she uncovers documents and photographs, a very different tale than the one Tom has led her to believe begins to unfold, and she finds herself increasingly isolated and paranoid. As the twisted events of that night begin to come to light, Carmen must ask herself if it’s really a truth worth knowing...even if it destroys her and the lives of the people she loves most.

"Echoes of Daphne du Maurier's classic Rebecca reverberate throughout British author Heathcote's impressive debut... [An] intense psychological thriller." -Publishers Weekly, starred review
"Buckle up for this gripping psychological thriller." -Marie Claire
"An immersing story . . . The "hidden currents" that keep us submerged in Undertow are not only those of the sea, but the fear and suspicion that swell catastrophically through the most intimate relationships." -Observer
"Absolutely gripping." -Rosamund Lupton, New York Times bestselling author of Sister
"Chilling, twisty and hugely atmospheric. . . This slow-burn tale sneaks up and grabs you by the throat, right when you least it expect it. Brilliant!" -Heat
