Genevieve has finally escaped the stressful and dangerous demands of her work - sales executive by day, pole dancer at the exclusive Barclay by night - and achieved her dream: to get out of London and start a new life aboard a houseboat in Kent. But on the night of her boat-warming party a body washes up beside the vessel, and Genevieve recognises the victim. As the sanctuary of the boatyard is threatened, and Genevieve's life seems increasingly at risk, the story of how she came to be so out of her depth unfolds. The Barclay is not such an easy place to leave, and Genevieve finds out the cost of mixing business with pleasure.
'Haynes's powerful account of domestic violence is disquieting, yet unsensationalist. This is a gripping book.' Guardian 'Verdict: A thriller star on the rise.' Courier Mail 'This is the second psychological thriller by a novelist who has mastered the art of suspense.' Launceston Examiner 'Haynes is such a good writer she makes all sides of her complex novel seem natural and alive, including the fear of facing unknown danger.' NZ Listener 'A stellar thriller.' Cosmopolitan 'The writing style is clear and engaging and the characters feel natural.' -- sistersincrime.org.au
