Description for Exquisite
Paperback. .
She loves me. She loves me not. Bo Luxton has it all - a loving family, a beautiful home in the Lake District, and a clutch of bestselling books to her name. Enter Alice Dark, an aspiring writer who is drifting through life, with a series of dead-end jobs and a freeloading boyfriend.When they meet at a writers' retreat, the chemistry is instant, and a sinister relationship develops... Or does it? Breathlessly pacey, taut and terrifying, Exquisite is a startlingly original and unbalancing psychological thriller that will keep you guessing until the very last page. `The characters are so untrustworthy you wont know what to believe, but you won't put it down till you've found out. A superb debut' Sunday Mirror 'It's a remarkable debut in the crowded psychological thriller field, written with great sureness of touch and tone' Times Crime Club `Slickly claustrophobic, this arch story of obsessive, forbidden love taken to the extreme will have you squirming in your seat' Sarah Pinsborough `Whip-smart, lushly written and truly page-turning ... Sarah Stovell is a thrilling talent' Holly Seddon `A moving, gripping story ... twists keep coming till the very last page. I loved it' Erin Kelly `Addictive, terrifying and beautifully written, Exquisite is up there with the best psychological thrillers I've ever read. Fucking awesome' Chris Whittaker
