She had no option but to kill him.

With no evidence of the assault, Emily must help her hide the body. . .

Critic Reviews

A nail-biting, immersive whirl of a read. Brimming with mysterious twists, turns, and a frenemyship of the most chilling proportions, We Were Never Here is every woman's worst nightmare...and every thriller-lover's dream
A book that skillfully examines toxic friendship at its most extreme
Tense and original . . . Genuinely mind-blowing twists. Completely addictive
Tantalisingly suspenseful, frequently surprising, thoroughly compelling. We Were Never Here is a terrific, thought-provoking thriller (BP Walter, bestselling author of The Dinner Guest)
My God, [Bartz] is SO GOOD at building that tense oh-no-what-have-I-done queasy energy! Zippy, nervy and so thoughtful and current on women's safety (Harriet Walker, author of The New Girl and The Wedding Night)
Incredibly tense and atmospheric, We Were Never Here explores the nuances of memory, the secrets that bind a friendship-and those that threaten to tear them apart. Andrea Bartz delivers a sharp, unsettling thriller about power, obsession, and the inescapable grip of the past (Megan Miranda, New York Times bestselling author of All the Missing Girls)
Andrea Bartz has proven herself a master of the timely literary thriller
[A] riveting psychological thriller... Suspense fans will look forward to seeing more from this talented author
Exhilarating ... Bartz's writing will keep readers on their toes, questioning everything and looking for hidden meanings...A slow-burn thriller that gradually suffocates both the protagonist and the reader-in a good way
Intelligent, methodical ... Emily and Kristen [would] be right at home in a Hitchcock psychological thriller. A terrific novel, blending the Hitchockian elements with a touch of Patricia Highsmith
