Riassunto

It's 1.15 a.m. Connie Bowskill should be asleep. Instead, she's logging on to a property website in search of a particular house: 11 Bentley Grove, Cambridge. She knows it's for sale; she saw the estate agent's board in the front garden less than six hours ago. Soon Connie is clicking on the 'Virtual Tour' button, keen to see the inside of 11 Bentley Grove and put her mind at rest once and for all. She finds herself looking at a scene from a nightmare: in the living room, in the middle of the carpet, there's a woman lying face down in a huge pool of blood. In shock, Connie wakes her husband Kit. But when Kit sits down at the computer to take a look, he sees no dead body, only a pristine beige carpet in a perfectly ordinary room ...

Su questo libro

Recensione:

An assured psychological thriller of murderous domestic deceit. (Financial Times)

A beautifully written and entirely gripping take from beginning to end. (Heat)

As addictively creepy as her previous thrillers (Independent on Sunday)

A writer of prodigious talent ... This is a jaw-droppingly assured book which sometimes feels as if there's a plot twist on every page. (Daily Express)

'If you're new to the Sophie Hannah phenomenon, let us explain: she's the author of five previous psychological crime thrillers, each of which begins with a cunning premise, which grips like a vice for the rest of the novel, with myriad twists you never see coming . . . another superb mystery in which extraordinary things happen to ordinary people.' ***** (Heat)

Sophie Hannah scores on all counts . . . Confidence oozes from every taut chapter (Scotsman)

'We're huge fans of Hannah's psychological thrillers, and this new one is even more tense and gripping than her previous books.' (Heat)

'Sophie Hannah, the queen of psychological suspense, reigns supreme in her latest taut and terrifying chiller-thriller . . . Hannah is one of Britain's most intelligent and thrilling writers. Her modern-day gothic novels are clever, complex and devilishly plotted with outrageous twists and turns that are guaranteed to confound even the smartest of readers. Expect the unexpected right up to the very last page.' (Lancashire Evening Post)

'Sophie Hannah has rapidly made a name for herself as a purveyor of upmarket psychological thrillers. From the first few pages of LASTING DAMAGE, it's easy to see why.' (Mail on Sunday)

'Hannah is a challenging storyteller and anything but predictable . . . I felt quite bereft on reaching the final page.' (Irish Independent)

Descrizione del libro:

The sixth psychological suspense novel yet from bestselling crime writer Sophie Hannah - unnervingly good.
