About this ebook

Two best friends. One fatal mistake. Can you ever escape the past?

‘Page-turning suspense with classic head-game thrills and chills’, international bestselling author Lisa Gardner


Childhood friends, Sarah and Jennifer, have always been careful.

After Jennifer’s mother was killed in a car accident, the two young women grow up determined to protect themselves from trauma. Together, they draw up a list of actions to avoid in order to keep them out of danger:

Never go out alone after dark.

Never get in the car.


Never take risks.


Never trust anyone.


But one fateful night, Sarah and Jennifer make a mistake; after a party, they accept a cab ride home, with horrifying consequences.

Ten years on, Sarah is still struggling to resume her normal life but the scars remain.

Now Sarah must confront her demons to unravel a case even more terrifying than her own.

‘Absorbing, innovative and thought provoking. Great read too!’ MARTINA COLE

'A stylish and impressive debut thriller’ S.J. BOLTON

‘A read-in-one-go sort of book, and if you’re after a genuinely disturbing thriller... it’ll be hard to beat’ OBSERVER


**Her First Mistake was previously published as The Never List**

Started off really well but got a bit far fetched when the main character went from being nervous & barely leaving her home to a 'criminal following' hero almost overnight.

Not my usual read but I loved it! Couldn't put it down and had a great twist at the end.

It was an OK read. Not brilliant. I thought it went on a bit too long, & I didn't like the ending, that wasn't long enough.
