You Don't Know Me
He’s guarding a dark secret, but so is she.
Lizzie Burdett was eighteen when she vanished, and Noah Carruso has never forgotten her. She was his first crush, his unrequited love. She was also his brother’s girlfriend.Tom Carruso hasn’t been home in over a decade. He left soon after Lizzie disappeared, under a darkening cloud of suspicion, and now he’s back for the inquest into Lizzie’s death – intent on telling his side of the story.
As the inquest looms, Noah meets Alice Pryce on holiday. They fall for each other fast and hard, but Noah can’t bear to tell Alice his deepest fears. And Alice is equally stricken – she carries a terrible secret of her own.
Is the truth worth telling if it will destroy everything?
‘Dark, compelling and truly memorable. Foster is one of my favourite writers.’

You Don’t Know Me: the idea for the story
In You Don’t Know Me I gave myself some new challenges: I set the story on the east coast of Australia, and I wanted to fully represent the passionate love affair of the two central characters, so there were more sex scenes than ever before! I also had a true crime podcast as part of the story - which is more commonplace now, but it felt innovative at the time!
You Don’t Know Me: the publishing story
You Don’t Know Me is my strongest seller, and it was also turned into an audio drama podcast series by Listnr. It was amazing to listen to the characters come to life thanks to the fabulous actors who worked on the series.
