Synopsis

One woman's fear is a another woman's weapon...

''When I look back on my relationship with Kathy I marvel at how naive she was, how little she knew.

But then, she always thought she had everything: the job; the baby; the friends; and him. She thought she was safe. She thought that nothing could touch her perfect world.

She should never have trusted me.''

A woman sets out to destroy a female colleague in this chilling psychological thriller.

About this title

Review:

'A very credible portrait of obsession to the point of madness ... a clever, involving first novel' Literary Review.

'Fascinating ... clever ... the author's real skill is her ability to invent memorable original characters. A thrilling read' Daily Mail.

'Pumps up suspense like Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl ... delivered in a sharp, pragmatic style that is gripping and readable, but behind the adventure the plot hints at bigger, more complex questions about our society' The Scotsman.

'A clever psychological thriller ... Lythell has a flair for leading the reader into assumptions then pulling away the foundations' Daily Express.

'Great writing and interesting female characters make this an entertaining thriller about rivalry, will and desperation' Diva.

'I could feel the tension radiating from the pages and I found it impossible to put down ... so well written, absolutely fascinating' Reading in the Sunshine.

'It's a surprise to learn that Jane Lythell is a debut novelist, since her measured pace as she builds up the increasing trepidation is very assured and relentless ... Gripping' Diplomat.

'Brilliantly intense and compelling, exciting and unputdownable!' Victoria Loves Books.

'Secrets, lies and assumptions all blend together to create page-turning momentum' We Love This Book.
