The hostage and the captor; the voyeur and the performer; the teacher and the pupil. Here exists a line that should never be crossed – but what if it were? Three full-length thrillers about the boundary of where shame and love lie. Note: these novels can now be found within a larger anthology: Eclipse Quartet: 4 Psychological Thrillers. THE SHUTTERED ROOM Little do they know their captive holds a deadly secret. Jess is taken hostage and incarcerated in an upstairs room by three thugs demanding a huge ransom from her rich father. In a bid to escape, she cuts a hole in the bedroom floor with a cutlery knife. From there, Jess observes the three of them going about their business. That’s when she starts playing games with them. That’s when her spying pulls her into a treacherous psychological game involving a twisted version of Stockholm syndrome. If only they knew what their captive was up to. What would they do to her? FALLING AWAKE “People would do anything for money,” spits a sinister moneylender, to the distaste of Gemma, a single mother facing homelessness. Thus begins a menacing tale about the uneasy chemistry between an unseen voyeur and a reluctant exhibitionist. If only she knew the sort of man her voyeur was. She wouldn't perform for him. Insomnia can have the most sinister causes. A HARD LESSON Sarah thought she was teaching a schoolchild a little English. How wrong she was. Not only is her subject a full-grown thug, he is dyslexic and part of a criminal clique headed by a psychopath. And this psychopath doesn't like people interfering with his business. Soon, she will learn the meaning of treachery. And fear.

Book Description
THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “My favorite kind of whodunit, kept me guessing all the way through, and reminiscent of Agatha Christie at her best -- with an extra dose of acid.” -- Alex Michaelides, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Silent Patient Everyone's invited...everyone's a suspect... During the languid days of the Christmas break, a group of thirtysomething friends from Oxford meet to welcome in the New Year together, a tradition they began as students ten years ago. For this vacation, they’ve chosen an idyllic and isolated estate in the Scottish Highlands—the perfect place to get away and unwind by themselves. The trip begins innocently enough: admiring the stunning if foreboding scenery, champagne in front of a crackling fire, and reminiscences about the past. But after a decade, the weight of secret resentments has grown too heavy for the group’s tenuous nostalgia to bear. Amid the boisterous revelry of New Year’s Eve, the cord holding them together snaps, just as a historic blizzard seals the lodge off from the outside world. Two days later, on New Year’s Day, one of them is dead. . . and another of them did it. Keep your friends close, the old adage says. But how close is too close? DON'T BE LEFT OUT. JOIN THE PARTY NOW.
