About the book
It’s the story everyone wants to hear.
That spring night in South London, when Isabel and Edward’s lives were torn apart.
The night Isabel learned that the worst things wait, just outside the door.
The night Edward learned that he was powerless to stop them.
The night they never talk about.
When their attacker is caught, it’s finally time to tell the story of that night.
Not to the world. Or to the man who did it. But to each other.
This is a story of murder. This is a story of survival. But most of all, this is a story of love.
“The Death of Us is astonishingly good – Abigail Dean’s the real thing” – Mick Herron
‘Beautifully crafted, taut, elegant and heartbreaking’ Monica Ali
