Sleepless

THE MIND-BENDING NEW THRILLER FROM THE NO. 1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF DEAR CHILD. 'Hausmann's novel has the feel of a nightmare, unfolding at breakneck speed'. SUNDAY TIMES. It's been years since Nadja Kulka was convicted of a cruel crime. After being released from prison, she's wanted nothing more than to live a normal life: nice flat, steady job, even a few friends. But when one of those friends, Laura von Hoven - free-spirited beauty and wife of Nadja's boss - kills her lover and begs Nadja for her help, Nadja can't seem to be able to refuse. The two women make for a remote house in the woods, the perfect place to bury a body. But their plan quickly falls apart and Nadja finds herself outplayed, a pawn in a bizarre game in which she is both the perfect victim and the perfect murderer. Dark secrets past and present collide in this haunting novel of guilt and retribution from the internationally bestselling author of Dear Child. PRAISE FOR ROMY HAUSMANN:. 'Chilling'.
