The first book in a heartbreaking trilogy set in post-war Liverpool by bestselling author Nadine Dorries.

1950s Liverpool. In the tight-knit Irish Catholic community of the Four Streets, two girls are growing up.

One is motherless – and hated by the cold woman who is determined to take her dead mother's place. The other is hiding a dreadful secret which she dare not let slip to anyone, lest it rips the heart out of the community.

What can the people of the Four Streets do when a betrayal at the very heart of their world comes to light?

Can't wait for the next one? HIDE HER NAME is out now!
