Nerve-wrackingly tense and paranoia-inducing, with a sense of unease that just won't let go. I loved every minute! You'll be gripped by just who is out to get Charlie - and why * HEAT * A queasily unsettling thriller is suffused with menace. * Sunday Mirror * An excellent, page-turning psychological suspense novel with a great plot and an engaging protagonist! Kept me guessing to the end -- Jenny Quintana, author of <i>The Missing Girl</i> I was absolutely gripped by this tale of secrets, lies, and the impossibility of running away from your past. I struggled to put this book down. Fantastic! -- Luca Veste, author of <i>The Bone Keeper</i> Brave, daring and original . . . I absolutely loved it -- Ali Harper, author of <i>The Disappeared</i> Twisty and so well plotted -- Amanda Reynolds, author of <i>The Hidden Wife</i> There's a nicely mellow quality to this well-written tale * Sunday Express * Clever plotting, a hugely confident sense of place, and more suspects than you can shake a stick at -- Caz Frear, author of <i>Stone Cold Heart</i> Loved this - atmospheric and beautifully written but edge-of-your-seat tense too -- Phoebe Locke, author of <i>The July Girls</i>
