The One That Got Away

Summary

You thought he was the one. You broke his heart. But now, he might be the only one who can save your life...
Pre-order the brilliant breakout new thriller from bestselling Gytha Lodge now!


***********


Arabella and Reid weren't meant to be, apparently. She's a fiery American journalist; he's a stoic British detective - it was nice while it lasted, and then it really wasn't.


And Arabella is over it now anyway. She's on the scent of a career-making story - a suspicious death amongst the cloistered elite world of Cambridge University, with a slice of police corruption too.


It's just, the more she investigates, the more there's only one person she wants to talk to about it - for practical help, yes, but also because there's really only one person she wants to talk to. She starts writing Reid a long sprawling email - it's not like she's ever planning to send it.


Until suddenly, she's in desperate trouble. The problem with chasing a killer is that sometimes, you run right into them.


Is it a blessing or a curse that the only the detective she can trust with her life is the one who broke her heart?
