Synopsis
'Gloriously dark, deliciously twisty' CLARE MACKINTOSH
ONE FAMILY, TWO HOLIDAYS, ONE DEVASTATING SECRET
To new nanny Amanda, the Temple family seem to have it all: the former actress; the famous professor; their three successful grown-up children. But like any family, beneath the smiles and hugs there lurks far darker emotions.
Sixteen years earlier, little Niamh Temple died while they were on holiday in Portugal. Now, as Amanda joins the family for a reunion at their seaside villa, she begins to suspect one of them might be hiding something terrible...
And suspicion is a dangerous thing.
From Chris Brookmyre, winner of the Theakstons and McIllvanney awards for Black Widow, comes a standalone psychological thriller full of twists, lies and betrayal.

Review
A quality psychological thriller that gets into your head and leaves you on the edge―Woman's Way
What happened to Niamh . . . is the mystery that lies at the heart of a novel that skilfully unpeels the truth like an onion, one thin layer at a time―Sunday Times
Stunning. A dark, brilliantly written suspense chiller. Superb. One of the best writers in the business on top form―Steve Cavanagh
Nuanced and intelligent―Laura Wilson, Guardian
It's simply compelling―The i
I raced through Fallen Angel, captivated by the darkness of the characters and the underlying toxicities of the dual timelines. Expertly plotted, it twists inexorably along to a highly satisfying resolution―Harriet Tyce
Humming along like a well-regulated machine, Fallen Angel shows how much Brookmyre has learned about planning and constructing a thriller, and how easily predictable plot developments can be blended with scarcely believable twists to gripping effect―Herald
Chilling and mysterious―Sunday Post
An insanely twisty thriller, with characters and plot that convince equally - this is a class act from a reliably brilliant author―Mirror
A complicated but satisfying tale―Literary Review
