Sometimes your first love won’t let you go…

When Lou Wandsworth ran away to France with her teacher Mike Hughes, she thought he was the love of her life. But Mike wasn’t what he seemed and he left her life in pieces.

Now 32, Lou discovers that he is involved with teenager Chloe Meadows. Determined to make sure history doesn’t repeat itself, she returns home to confront him for the damage he’s caused.

But Mike is a predator of the worst kind, and as Lou tries to bring him to justice, it’s clear that she could once again become his prey…

The million copy Sunday Times bestseller returns with a gripping psychological thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat.

One of those very rare books that’s worth hiding from the world for a day and becoming totally absorbed with the story and characters.

This is the best book I have listened to in ages. The story just grips from the very start and is relentless as the characters develop and the tale unfolds. The narrator is wonderful, bringing the story so brilliantly to life as she leads you through the story. Enjoyable on every level.

A wonderful twisting tale
