A tour de force of storytelling' AMANDA FOREMAN'A writer of powerful historical imagination and wicked literary gifts' SIMON SCHAMATerrifying, dark and bold, Sarah Dunant's breakthrough psychological thriller transcends genres and audiences; it crosses all boundaries, encroaching on the darker side of sex and fantasy, male and female.   Elizabeth Skorvecky has just come out of a long-term relationship with her boyfriend.  Alone in her Victorian house, her only companions are her cat, a trashy crime novel she's translating from Czech, and her music.  As the summer ends and the days draw in, unsettling things begin to happen.  First it's just a missing CD, then music playing in an empty kitchen at midnight, then a table laid for breakfast for two.  Poltergeist?  Insanity?When Elizabeth wakes at four in the morning to find a man sitting at the end of her bed, she knows, sickeningly , she's very sane - and being stalked.  She also discovers that the means of surviving can be just as shocking as surrender.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56308101480821,"sku":"9781844081790","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781844081790.jpg?v=1762806537","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781844081790","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
