About No One Will Know

From the bestselling author of The Girl in the Mirror, New Zealand author Rose Carlyle returns with her much anticipated second thriller

Eve Sylvester is young and broke and needs a job fast. After years of foster homes, backpacking and a sailing trip across the Pacific Ocean, she has lost contact with friends and family. She is alone, desperate—and pregnant.

Then she meets Julia and Christopher Hygate, a charming and glamorous couple, who seem to have the perfect life: loads of money and a breathtakingly beautiful mansion on a remote Tasmanian island. They make her a lucrative offer. Eve can move into their empty summerhouse and take up a very easy job.

Eve thinks she’s fallen on her feet—she has found a home, and her child will grow up in the aptly named Paradise Bay. But some things about the job don’t add up. Why must Eve stay out of sight? Why have the Hygates employed an ex-con to run their yacht-charter business? And what about the mysterious boats sailing in and out of the Hygates’ private marina? Has Eve made a deal with the devil? It’s too late to ask questions. Eve is already in far too deep.

Set against the stunning backdrop of a windswept island and its mysterious lighthouse, No One Will Know is a propulsive, seductive novel of suspense that reveals the terrible consequences of greed, staggering lies and fatal mistakes.

Author Note:

‘I hope No One Will Know will give you the same kind of wild ride as my debut, The Girl in the Mirror, but this time around, the heroine is extra special to me, because she is based on my own beloved grandmother. Eve’s difficult childhood and her determination to do better for her baby are themes that are very meaningful for me.

I loved writing this book, especially the lavish parties in sumptuous mansions, the voyage to a windswept island with a desolate lighthouse, and the disaster which leads to a life-or-death moment in the cold, dark ocean. I loved writing about rich people behaving badly. But most of all, I loved writing Eve’s journey. I hope you love her too.’
