BEHIND THE TALL HEDGES OF THE AFFLUENT, GATED COMMUNITY OF APPLE TREE CREEK, NOT ALL IS AS IT SEEMS…

Out of the blue, Gertie’s husband decides they need a break and he’s leaving her with their three children. Two streets east and three gardens down, successful businesswoman Rachael discovers her husband has cheated on her – again – even though she’s pregnant with his third child. Thrown together by a chance encounter, the two women bond over the shared disaster that is their marriages.
But did one husband push his wife too far?

When the ambulance sirens cut through the serenity of Apple Tree Creek, the small community is shocked at the violence that’s played out in their midst. CCTV reveals no outsiders visited the estate that night, confirming that the assailant must have been one of their own. Is the culprit still living among them? And why didn’t any of the cameras, designed to keep them all safe, catch anything?

As the web of neighbourly relationships unravels and the workings of their inner lives are exposed, questions will be asked, but not everyone wants to learn the answers.

You can only push people so far.

Kylie Kaden

Kylie Kaden knew writing was in her blood from a young age when she snuck onto her brother’s Commodore 64 to invent stories.

With a surfer-lawyer for a husband and three spirited sons, she stays sane by making things up for a living. Kylie can typically be found venting the day’s thoughts on her laptop (sometimes in the laundry so she can’t be found). She is also a columnist at My Child Magazine, but is the first to admit that despite having an honours degree in psychology, the wheels fall off at her place on a daily basis.

Kylie has published three novels, her debut, Losing Kate (2014) critically acclaimed, Missing You (2015) and The Day the Lies Began (2019) which marked Kylie’s launch into the domestic noir-thriller market.
