It’s only when he meets TV reporter Ellie Turner on a working weekend away from home that Pete succumbs to her charms in a moment of weakness.

His treacherous actions set off a chain of events fueled by jealousy, revenge, violence and hatred.

Five people will lose their lives as a result of Pete’s deception and he will be compelled to confront the ugly truth about his wife and his best friend, Jem.

He thought that nobody would ever discover what he’d done with Ellie … but he didn’t know who was listening in the room next door.

“There is so many twists and turns that I was well and truly gripped. It’s one of those books when once picked up you really won’t want to put it back down until you have turned that very last page. There is certainly enough to thrill and chill and I never knew what was going to happen next.” review
