THE SANCTUARY
The jawdropping and twisty new thriller from the author of The Perfect Father
Four women
Three nights of pampering
One too many deadly secrets…
On a remote farm in the deepest Devonshire countryside, four pregnant women arrive at an exclusive yoga retreat for a five-star weekend of prenatal pampering. The location is idyllic.
Their host, Selina, is eager to teach them all she knows about pregnancy and motherhood. But, like Selina, each of the women has a secret.
