The Playgroup An Absolutely Addictive and Gripping Psychological Suspense Thriller Packed with Secrets

Breath catches in my throat and terror grips me as my daughter's favourite jumper slides into focus. Time slows. Helpless, I watch my precious little girl run into the road. Screeching tyres slice through the quiet afternoon. Days from now, my friends will say the worst day of my life was all my fault... A bright and welcoming haven, the playgroup sits at the heart of the town, tucked away inside a red-brick building. The Nest should have been the safest place for my rosy-cheeked, pink-obsessed daughter, Florence. Run by mothers like me, I trusted my newfound friends - Alice, Beth and Georgie - to take care of my child. But now my choice has left Florence fighting for her life. My heart pounds thinking about what I will tell my husband, James. He stayed with me through the darkest times, and I thought some space would bring us closer. But as I watch our little girl sleeping in a hospital bed, I know our relationship may never recover from this. How can I tell James what really happened if I don't know myself? I can't shake the feeling the other mothers are lying to me; they know I'd never let Florence leave the nursery by herself.
