A gripping tale of jealousy and obsession, from the #1 bestselling author of The Magpies . When Andrew Sumner meets beautiful, edgy Charlie, he is certain his run of bad luck has finally come to an end. But as the two of them embark on an intense affair, Andrew wonders if his grasp on reality is slipping. Items go missing in his apartment. Somebody appears to be following him. And as misfortune and tragedy strike his friends and loved ones, Andrew is forced to confront the frightening truth… Is Charlie really the girl of his dreams – or the woman of his nightmares?
Despite being overloaded with women with serious issues (was there one stable Human in the bunch without a sob story or current crisis?) This was an intense thriller with an end that will have you wondering just how deep jealousy can go. Nicely written, with an almost clueless protagonist, the metaphorical blinding he suffers by love is an excellent companion to the literal visual impairments throughout the book.
