Synopsis: The truth behind a one-night stand becomes just as terrifying as the consequences, &“engrossing&” (The Guardian). Nina Todd is a woman of unextraordinary looks, with a dependable boyfriend and a menial job in Sheffield. It&’s what she&’s craved for years—a completely normal life. Then, while on a business trip in Blackpool, she&’s approached by a younger man in the Hotel Astoria. She should have said no, but he was too handsome, and too persuasive to let go. The only trouble is . . . now he won&’t let her go. What can he possibly want with her? He doesn&’t even know her real name. It wasn&’t a random pick-up. Nina&’s the one Rupert had been searching for. And he&’s not giving up on her. Wherever she goes, Rupert will be there, too—gorgeous, irresistible, distracting, and determined to rip apart Nina&’s newly ordered life. Now all she has to fear is her relationship and her job. She&’ll never suspect there&’s so much more. Nina doesn&’t even know his real name. If she did, she&’d run like hell. What begins as a fatal attraction takes a terrifying detour as the paths of two apparent strangers converge, in this psychological thriller from &“the suspense writers&’ suspense writer&” (Harper&’s Bazaar). &“A gripping page-turner.&” —Cosmopolitan &“Horribly plausible and crisply executed.&” —The Sunday Telegraph
