Review
"Brilliant. A beautifully crafted story of obsession, sex, violation...climaxing in one of the most authentically shocking endings in recent fiction."
From the Publisher
Pacy and erotic thriller
Frannie is good-looking, divorced, living alone in New York. She likes being on her own just as much as she likes sex, and she is not afraid to take risks. Then one night she surprises a handsome man with a red-headed woman in the basement of a bar. When the woman is found dead in Frannie's neighbourhood, her private but unsheltered life is overwhelmed with dark suspicions and even darker desires... "A ferociously uninhibited erotic thriller!" New York Times; "Moore has created a striking and memorable heroine: intelligent, brave, watchful and sexually adventurous...a brilliant, pacy, intense, erotic thriller, packed with beautifully observed detail, humming with melancholy" Independent; "Taps into the deep well of female obsession...builds up an atmosphere of thick sexual tension and arranges for its explosive release" New Yorker; "A compulsive page-turner" Guardian
