Summary

I survived the accident. Now the real nightmare begins…

The chilling new psychological thriller by S. K. Tremayne, author of the Sunday Times No. 1 bestseller, THE ICE TWINS.

How long can they keep you in the dark?

It was just a patch of ice. But it was nearly enough to kill Kath Redway, spinning her car into Burrator Reservoir in the beautiful Dartmoor National Park.

She is shocked but delighted to escape with a few bruises and amnesia. But her family is not so pleased. Her handsome husband is cold, even angry. Her gifted daughter talks ever more strangely, about a 'man on the moor'.

Then, as chilling fragments of memory return, Kath realizes her 'accident' was nothing of the kind. And now her life collapses into a new world of darkness, menace, and terror.

Blinding listen

Without doubt right up there in my top five books and I get through a lot of books, found this very hard to put down..
I will be surprised if just before I died does not sweep all before it.
Top notch thriller.

Rather repetitive

Compelling story, though repetitive and spoilt by the narration which is read in an unconvincing droned accent .

My favourite book by this Author

I have read all SK Tremaynes books now and this has to be my favourite. Would be 5 star if the story varied more from the others as they all seem to follow the same pattern of a troubled female lead with an even more troubled child. The narration was brilliant.
