ABBEY'S BOOKSELLER PICK ----- A semi-successful writer hears that a body has been found near his childhood town, and the news causes him to retrieve an old diary. Through the entries from 25 years ago, Justin tells of the events surrounding his gang: his best friend Aaron – who he is frankly very worried about – and Chen and Leeson. When Aaron disappears, it sets off a chain reaction as Justin tries to figure out how he can help. Meanwhile in the present time, three friends wonder if the past is about to catch up with them...

Meticulously plotted and atmospheric writing that pulls you in from the very first page!  Lindy

When human remains are discovered in a forest, police are baffled, the locals are shocked and one group of old friends starts to panic. Their long-held secret is about to be uncovered.
It all began in 1999 when sixteen-year-old Aaron ran away from home, drawing his friends into an unforeseeable chain of events that no one escaped from unscathed.

In The Ledge, past and present run breathlessly parallel, leading to a climax that will change everything you thought you knew. This is a mind-bending new novel from the master of the unexpected.
