Sophie thought Alzheimer's was stealing her mother. But what if it's all a lie?Everyone believes Sophie is a devoted daughter, caring selflessly for her mother in a crumbling old house. They don't see the bruises. They don't hear the insults. They don't know about the shadow her mother claims visits her at night. Sophie tries to dismiss it as part of the disease - until she places a recorder in her mother's bedroom and hears a second voice whispering in the dark. Now Sophie is questioning everything. The bruises. The paranoia. The fear creeping into every corner of their home. What if her mother isn't losing her mind? What if she's playing a game? A cruel, calculated game that Sophie can't escape. Dark, twisted, and razor-sharp, The Broken Ones is a haunting psychological thriller where nothing is as it seems and trust may be the most dangerous illusion of all. Praise for Sarah A. Denzil`Sarah is a master of the unsettling twist. Her psychological thrillers are dark, intelligent, and deeply immersive.' AJ Wills, author of His Wife's Sister`Sarah A. Denzil is the queen of the clever, claustrophobic thriller. Her stories simmer with menace, deceit and betrayal. They grab you from the first page and never let you go.' A J McDine, author of Should Have Known Better`Sarah A. Denzil always delivers a gripping psychological thriller that keeps me turning the pages long into the night!' Shalini Boland, author of The Silent Bride`Sarah A. Denzil's books are the epitome of great psychological thrillers packed with fast action, compelling characters and gasp out aloud twists. If you haven't read any of her books, you need to now!' Miranda Rijks, bestselling author of The Visitors and One Little Mistake.
