Description
From the award-winning author of the internationally-bestselling Brigid Quinn thrillers, which have been translated into 20 languages, comes this gripping series spin-off: an upmarket novel of domestic suspense about a pair of sisters nicknamed Malice and Lethal, and a husband who vanishes into thin air, only to reappear and throw a bomb into both their lives
Alice Einstein - known as Malice to her former schoolfriends - likes to tell herself stories. There''s a good one she''s workshopping about how, despite once being a critically acclaimed literary novelist, she''s ended up blocked and uninspired, living in her timid, conflict-averse sister Liesel''s spare room.
But then Liesel sends her an SOS worthy of a thriller novel. The horror! The horror! Sam is back.
Sam, Liesel''s wealthy ex-husband, vanished ten years ago, leaving her a chunk of money but no explanation. Sam is handsome, charming, manipulative . . . and now he claims he''s sick.
