Synopsis
Alice Loudon seems to have everything: close friends, a loving boyfriend, a successful career. Then one day she meets a stranger while crossing the street and - impulsively, immediately - abandons her old, safe life for a passionate affair. It leads her into a dark, dangerous realm of eroticism and extreme experience that both entices and alarms her.
Adam Tallis, heroic survivor of a disastrous mountaineering expedition, teaches her things about herself she never knew. As she learns more about her lover, she enters his world of risk and transgression - and begins to uncover a past filled with troubling secrets. But love and sexual obsession overwhelm her until they threaten everything: her safety, her sanity, and, finally, her life.

Customer Review: 11 September 2002Critic Review:
"Cancel all appointments and unplug the phone. Once started, you will do nothing until you finish this thriller."
Harpers & Queen
"Thrillers claiming to be 'dark, erotic and compulsive' are two a penny. But this is the genuine article... not only a nail-biting read, but also has great insight into male and female desire, obsession, self-destructiveness and the wilder shores of love."
Daily Telegraph
