A fast-paced thriller by Tilly Bagshawe written in the style of Sidney Sheldon. Inspired by the aftermath of major financial scandals, the story follows Grace Brookstein, the young wife of billionaire hedge-fund manager Leonard "Lenny" Brookstein. When Lenny mysteriously disappears at sea and billions of dollars vanish from his investment fund, Grace becomes the prime suspect in one of the biggest financial fraud cases in history.

Once a glamorous socialite, Grace suddenly loses everything—her wealth, reputation, friends, and freedom. Convinced that she has been framed, she sets out to uncover the truth behind her husband's disappearance and the missing fortune. Along the way, she faces betrayal, danger, and shocking revelations while transforming from a naïve woman into a determined survivor seeking justice and revenge.

Filled with glamour, conspiracy, financial intrigue, suspense, and dramatic twists, After the Darkness captures many of the elements that made Sidney Sheldon's novels so popular.
