SUSPENSE LIES IN THE SHADOWS OF RURAL IRELAND...
Hazel McDermott is on the phone with her husband Darragh when she hears the screech of tyres. The jeep he was driving is soon found, overturned in a field off the motorway, but Darragh has vanished.
As the days pass and the Gardai investigate, Hazel's carefully built life starts to crumble. She soon discovers that her charismatic property developer husband has been keeping secrets - personal and financial - that could put her family's safety and future at risk. But where is he? Is something sinister afoot, after he got into bed with the wrong people? And what is the connection to an abandoned mental asylum in a small town in County Galway? The answer, when she eventually gets it, will shock Hazel beyond belief.
Taut, unsettling, rich with suspense, If These Walls Could Talk is a gripping West of Ireland thriller about deception, obsession and the haunting truths we hide - even from those closest to us.
