WHAT YOU DID by Claire McGowan -psychological thriller

Six friends have kept in touch since their university days. It is now twenty five years since

those hallowed days and they get together at Ali and Mike’s house for a celebration.

Mike is a corporate lawyer and works all hours god sends and a few more besides to

keep them in the style they are accustomed to. Ali volunteers for a women’s shelter

and has become a local media star by doing this.After the meal and a few drinks most

of the crowd had gone to bed, all being put up at Ali and Mike’s house and there are

a few stragglers still chatting. Ali having gone to bed herself, comes down for some

water and is horrified to find Karen staggering in from the garden cut and bleeding,

covered in grass saying that she has been raped….. by Mike- Ali’s husband. What

follows is her worst nightmare, one thing leading to yet another revelation. What

on earth is happening and what will happen to both Mike and her and her family?

OMG! This book is brilliantly written with the tension almost palpable. My heart

was beating faster and I found my self devouring page by page wanting to read

faster to find out what was happening. I felt for Ali and how everything in her

world was crumbling around her. This is one stunning read , one to keep you

on the edge of your seat whilst feeling anxious at the same time.

Wow! Just wow!

#damppebblesblogtours Media Pack for Blog Tour, Monday 8th July to Friday 2nd August 2019 Book Blurb: A vicious assault. A devastating accusation. Who should she trust, her husband or her best friend?   It was supposed to be the perfect reunion: six university friends together again after twenty
years. Host Ali finally has the life she always wanted, a career she can be proud of and a
wonderful family with her college boyfriend, now husband. But that night her best friend
makes an accusation so shocking that nothing will ever be the same again.   When Karen staggers in from the garden, bleeding and traumatised, she claims that she
has been assaulted by Ali’s husband, Mike. Ali must make a split-second decision: who
should she believe? Her horrified husband, or her best friend? With Mike offering a
very different version of events, Ali knows one of them is lying, but which? And why?   When the ensuing chaos forces her to re-examine the golden era the group shared at
university, Ali realises there are darker memories too. Memories that have lain dormant for
decades. Memories someone would kill to protect. About Claire McGowan: Born in Northern Ireland in 1981, Claire McGowan studied in Oxford then lived overseas in
