*Escape with the gripping new novel from Lucy Clarke, THE SURF HOUSE, available to buy now*

Nothing has felt right since Elle rented out her house . . .

I’M IN YOUR HOUSE

There’s a new coldness. A shift in the atmosphere. The prickling feeling that someone is watching her every move from the shadows.

I’M IN YOUR HEAD

Maybe it’s all in Elle’s mind? She’s a writer – her imagination, after all, is her strength. And yet every threat seems personal. As if someone has discovered the secrets that keep her awake at night.

AND NOW I KNOW YOUR SECRET

As fear and paranoia close in, Elle’s own home becomes a prison. Someone is unlocking her past – and she’s given them the key…

Spine-tingling, chilling, and utterly compulsive, this is the thriller that EVERYONE is talking about right now –

This is what happens when you let your house on Air-B&B (or is it)

This is what happens when you live a lot of your life on Social Media (even if it is a sham)

This is what happens when you lie to your husband
and
This is what happens when you live a lie for so many years.

Sisters Elle and Fiona live in Cornwall. Fiona has lived there foe a while and Elle a very successful 1st time author moves there and promptly demolishes an old farm house on the cliff (much to the disapproval of neighbours) and builds a mansion - something her husband is not too keen on.

Elle goes to France on a writers retreat -as she needs the money- as the new house is a bit of a money pit AND her husband has left so she is living off the advance for her second novel. BUT she has writer's block and a looming deadline.

She has rented out her house for the two weeks she is away through Air B&B, however, when she gets home things aren't quite right. It is from this point things start to go wrong for Elle. Someone has been in her house (and not just the Air B&B family). Things have disappeared, things have been broken. Mysterious writing on the windows, a flood in the house caused by an overflowing sink. Things aren't going Elle's way and no-one believes her, not even her sister.
Not only is she having trouble on the homefront and the work front, we find out she was probably molested by a teacher whilst at Uni- this also seems to be coming back to bite her.
Throughout the book we are given lots of characters who many be the source of her problems, but as soon as you think "It's him/her" it all changes and another protagonist is brought to the forefront.
I didn't see the ending coming until just before it happens- which is a good sign for me that this book is truly a thriller.
Excellent narrator in Laura Kirman, and will be keeping an eye (or ear) out for her.
