Katerina Diamond - The Promise - The twisty new thriller from the Sunday Times bestseller, guaranteed to keep you up all night

‘I wanted to. You’ve been so kind … after everything. You don’t have to stay out of our way you know. It’s your house.’

‘Where’s Tom?’ Adrian noticed the table was set for two and felt uneasy at the idea of trying to maintain a conversation with Andrea alone tonight. ‘I haven’t had much of a chance to speak to him lately.’

‘He’s sleeping over at Robin’s.’

‘How’s he getting on with the new school?’

‘Good. You know he always hated the private school anyway. Here, let me serve you.’

‘It’s OK, I’ll do it. Don’t worry.’ He pulled up a chair and sat down at the table. The turquoise stew pot stood in the centre; he had forgotten he even had it, it had belonged to his mother, one of the only things he had left from his childhood. It reminded him of the better times they had had together and so he couldn’t bring himself to give it away. He was pleased to see it. He had to admit, it was nice to have real food for once. His dinners mainly consisted of takeaways or frozen ready meals. ‘Did you work today?’

‘Yes of course I worked! The sales are on,’ she said defensively. Andrea worked in a local department store, front of shop in cosmetics.
