Shame on you - Clara Salaman

The story revolves around Phoebe, a successful, well-established woman who seems to have it all: a flourishing career, a loving family, and a comfortable life. However, beneath the surface of her seemingly perfect world, Phoebe harbors a dark secret from her past—one that has haunted her for years.

Phoebe’s life begins to unravel when an old acquaintance, Mel, reappears in her life, threatening to expose the shameful event that Phoebe has worked so hard to bury. Mel's return forces Phoebe to confront the trauma of her past and the lies she's built her life upon. As the tension between the two women grows, Phoebe becomes increasingly paranoid, unsure who to trust and whether she can stop Mel from exposing everything she has tried so hard to forget.

As the story unfolds, the narrative explores Phoebe’s internal struggle with the shame she feels, questioning whether it’s possible to atone for her past actions or if she is doomed to be defined by them forever. With Mel’s return, the stakes grow higher, and Phoebe is pushed to the edge, facing not only the potential destruction of her reputation but also a deeper, more personal reckoning with the choices she has made.

The novel is both a psychological exploration and a suspense-filled drama, with plenty of twists and turns that keep the reader guessing. As the tension builds, the question arises: how far will Phoebe go to protect herself and keep her secrets hidden?
