Dangerous is one thing. Deadly is something else.
When Clodagh Shepherd’s curiosity gives way to obsession, her thoughts turn to revenge.
In the wake of her husband’s affair and subsequent disappearance, Clo makes an impulsive decision to befriend the beautiful stranger who has stolen her life. Answering an ad for a home help, she moves into the home of her husband’s mistress and is immediately drawn into the chilling reality behind the idyllic façade of Hamptons Life. Central to her terrifying nightmare is a deadly secret—a secret someone will kill to keep.
In this dark and twisting thriller, Clo proves the adage ‘hell hath no fury like a woman scorned’ with shocking consequences.
This was a very original book that I couldn’t put down, I’m still wondering whether I loved it or was totally confused by it!
Dark and tense throughout, the plot is full of twists and surprising confessions all the while set mainly on the beach, in what most people consider a cheerful place, completely at odds with the claustrophobic emotions in the house.
Clodagh is also a weird one, I’m not sure if I liked or disliked her, she seemed very cold but full of hidden depths and strength, I wondered if she really was the killer she thought she was, and why did she care so much for her horrible Husband?
An totally addictive storyline however, highly recommended if you want something out of the ordinary.
