Well, why not here? All along something like this had been threatened. Why not in the place she had seen as ultimate safety?
Bound and gagged in her family’s home Miranda – young and till now clever and courageous – knows only terror at what might come next.
It had started so small: just some anonymous jokes. A horse-drawn hearse bearing a viciously worded wreath at the party celebrating her recently widowed father’s imminent marriage. Then a dissecting-room severed hand left in her flat. Soon the threats get worse and turn fatal, as a seeming sex game ends in a hanging.
And always the unknown killer's ‘calling card’ while Miranda, unwittingly aided by her family, comes ever closer to her own destruction.

As an in-house editor (Penguin, Thames & Hudson, Secker & Warburg, Macdonald Education) Sue Webb's job largely featured rewriting, from putting art histories into the author's voice to rewording an uberdude Russian poet from scratch. Subsequently she continued as a ghostwriter, and as the author of two sagas, a social comedy and a psychological thriller.
