About Book: EVERYONE HAS A PAST. . . YOURS IS COMING TO KILL YOU

Alex and Morven have a pretty perfect marriage. Still madly in love after ten years, they have no secrets from each other and their life in London with daughter Poppy is . . . happy. Until one day it changes. Morven disappears, her car found abandoned. The police come around to Alex's house to tell him things about his wife he never knew: her real name, her past life, the secrets she kept from him. And Alex realises he's been loving a lie. He needs answers . . . and on the shore of a dark and remote lake in Wales he learns that the tragic events which shaped the past now threaten to rip apart the present.

My Thoughts: What a ride! I Know Who You Are by Nick Curran is one of those books that grabs you from the first page and keeps you glued to it until the very end. Alex and Morven seem to have it all—a happy marriage, a sweet daughter, and a picture-perfect life. But when Morven disappears, the cracks begin to show, and everything Alex thought he knew gets turned on its head.

Curran masterfully weaves suspense and emotion, that kept me guessing at every turn. The pacing was spot on, with just the right mix of heart-pounding action and quieter moments that made me reflect on the characters’ lives. And the setting? Deliciously atmospheric, adding an extra layer of tension to an already gripping story.

This is a book that had me turning pages well past bedtime, and honestly, I didn’t want it to end. If you love thrillers that keep you on edge, with twists and turns you’ll never see coming, I Know Who You Are deserves a spot on your shelf. A brilliantly crafted, five-star must-read that will stay with you long after you’ve turned the final page!
