To find him, she must go it alone...
Liza's life is thrown into turmoil when her beloved husband Toby disappears without a trace. Una-Mary Parker takes readers on a non-stop tour of the dangerously rich and privileged in her unputdownable epic, False Promises. The perfect read for fans of Penny Vincenzi and Jackie Collins.
Toby and Liza Hamcroft share a life of wealth, privilege and marital bliss. Parents of three adorable children, members of Lloyd's of London, and part of England's elite - not a day goes by without Liza counting her blessings. Then her life is thrown into turmoil when Toby disappears without a trace.
Lloyd's, where Toby is a successful broker, is suffering huge insurance losses and as the syndicates start to crash, Liza realises the implications could be catastrophic for those involved. Disaster for her brother Freddy whose wife Melissa is only after his money; ruin for Sir Humphrey and Lady Rosemary Davenport who put their trust in Toby; and humiliation for her parents who are set to lose everything.
As the days go by, Liza frantically searches for clues to Toby's whereabouts. But who can she turn to for help? Toby's colleagues show concern, but can they be trusted? When events take a more sinister turn, Liza realises she must take the law into her own hands if she is to find her husband before it is too late...
