The Doll's House

Author(s): Louise Phillips

Fiction

My father drowned the year Emmaline died. Afterwards, my mother looked at me with hatred in her eyes. 8 Clodagh Hamilton has never questioned why she can't remember large parts of her childhood. But when she's released from rehab following the death of her mother she's visits a hypnotherapist who, through deep regression, delves into her subconscious - unleashing disturbing childhood memories. Meanwhile criminal psychologist Dr Kate Pearson is called in to investigate a murder along a Dublin canal. She is soon convinced that this murder won't be the killer's last but is now in a race to stop him before he strikes again. But what links Clodagh Hamilton and a horrific accident 35 years ago to the murder of a television celebrity? As Clodagh grows closer to the truth about what happened to her father - and her sister Emmaline - she unravels a web of lies and deceit over thirty years old. The killer is ready to strike again. Will Kate Pearson discover the vital link to save Clodagh before it's too late?
