Riassunto

The unnervingly good sixth psychological thriller from bestselling crime writer Sophie Hannah, not to be missed for readers of Clare Mackintosh and Paula Hawkins. 'Jaw-droppingly assured' Daily Express 'A first-class whodunnit' Scotsman Don't go into the other woman's house . . . 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 . . .

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

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

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

'Hannah has a canny knack of insinuating threat into apparently benign domesticity and she does a nice line in offbeat characters' (Daily Mail)

'We're huge fans of Sophie Hannah's psychological thrillers . . . [LASTING DAMAGE is] one of her very best. Whether crime thrillers are your usual cup of tea or not, expect a beautifully written and entirely gripping tale from beginning to end.' (Heat)

'An edge-of-your-seat psychological crime thriller . . . The twists just keep coming. You will be kept on your toes from start to finish.' (Essentials)

'Hannah creates a complex plot that grafts lurid motifs of insanity on to a solid police-procedural template. Her main strength, however, is her characterisation' (Irish Times)
