Description

New in paperback - the brilliantly dark and twisty psychological thriller about a serial killer in therapy.

Renowned therapist Clarissa is no stranger to the dark side of humanity. But when Ida walks into her office - angry, damaged and seemingly suicidal - she may have met her match. For Ida has secrets. Murderous secrets.

Somehow, Clarissa must find the key to unlock Ida's past and save her life. But what if she has entered a game more deadly, and more sinister, than she could ever have imagined

Reviews

'A brilliant game of cat and mouse between author and reader... The pieces of this psychological thriller fit together as ingeniously as those in a Chinese puzzle box' - The Times

'A fascinating study in guilt, shame, blame and the stories we tell ourselves to make life bearable... The portrait of the vain and self-deceiving therapist is chilling, and the ultimate revelation is horribly convincing' - Literary Review

'Original, intelligent and intriguing - I gulped it down in two sittings' - Andrea Mara

'Highly original and flawlessly executed... An utterly compelling, gripping read with an explosive conclusion' - Danielle Ramsay, author of The Perfect Husband

'Surprising, fresh and almost indecently fun, with two brilliantly original female leads and a sinuous plot that keeps you guessing until the very last page' - Tammy Cohen, author of The Wedding Party

A sequel, Meet Me in the Darkness, is coming soon.
