Product Description

'A gorgeously atmospheric mystery' 5-star reader review

'A great mystery thriller with a sprinkling of romance.' 5-star reader review

'The twist and turns are amazing' 5-star reader review

Gabrielle Adams has it all - brains, beauty, a handsome fiancé, and a dream job in publishing. Until, one day, everything changes.

'The Tube Killer' takes his victims when they least expect it: standing on the edge of a busy London Underground platform, as they wait for a train to arrive through the murky tunnels of London.

Gabrielle soon learns that being a survivor is harder than being a victim, and she struggles to return to her old life. Desperate to break free from the endless nightmares, she snatches up an opportunity to run a tiny bookshop in a picturesque cove in rural Cornwall.

She thinks she's found the perfect escape, but has she swapped one nightmare for another?
