| Shelley Summers is sixteen when she is subjected to a serious sexual assault in a London underpass, the repercussions of which are to have a lasting effect. Ten years later, she is working as a journalist for a nationwide magazine when she meets a senior detective who is investigating a series of murders, committed, he believes, by the same person. The deeper Mike Eveson's investigations go, the more he is forced to a troublesome conclusion, that the woman who is responsible for the murders is the very same one he has fallen for: Shelley Summers. But is he right? |

Jack, Annie and Tom, are three adolescents happily growing up together in the Suffolk
countryside. But the innocence of youth is fading and being replaced by an awareness of
developing passions that distort their friendship. Jack has come to view Annie in a different light,
and Tom no longer seems the amiable playmate he once was. The trials and tribulations the trio
are about to encounter are deepened further by the appearance of the manipulative landowner,
Nigel de Vere, who is soon to cast his shadow over the entire village community of Upper Bristow.
