‘Wise, warm and beautifully written, with a fantastic twist’ – Daily Mail

‘I absolutely loved this book and didn’t want it to end’ – Liane Moriarty, author of Big Little Lies

The Man Who Didn't Call by Rosie Walsh is the perfect novel for anyone who's ever waited for a phone call that didn't come.


Imagine you meet a man, spend seven glorious days together and fall in love. It’s mutual, too: you’ve never been so certain of anything.

So, when he leaves for a long-booked holiday and promises to call from the airport, you have no cause to doubt him.

But he doesn’t call.

Your friends tell you to forget him, but you know they're wrong: something must have happened; there must be a reason for his silence.

What do you do when you finally discover you're right? That there is a reason – and that reason is the one thing you didn't share with each other . . . The truth.

‘Beautiful, honest, tender, captivating, utterly unforgettable’ – Heat

For fans of Jojo Moyes and Liane Moriarty, this is the love story you won't be able to forget.
