内容简介：
Charlotte Pierce has had a solitary childhood, eked out in large houses with empty people doing empty things; the only person who ever remembered her birthday was Cook. Charlotte has two close friends from her schooldays: Barty, an acclaimed photographer, and Therese, who now runs an animal sanctuary. Blissfully ignorant, the two girls don't know it, but Barty and Therese are the most important people in Charlie's life. Sarah Kennedy's first novel is a compelling psychological chiller that examines the devastating effects of a damaged childhood. A mixture of Highsmith and Rendall, a new style in suspense.
