What to expect
The truth can be a bitter pill . . .
Michelle will never get tired of the view from her office window. Jagged mountains - and the wintry streets of Reykjavik, Iceland. It's a perk of her new job at Kimia Pharmaceuticals.
Her old life - a dreary 9-to-5 and a cheating ex back in London - already feels a million miles away.
Still, there's something strange about Michelle's new colleagues. They're all young, beautiful . . . and aloof. But then Michelle meets Lars, a jittery researcher from the restricted upper floors.
She thinks she's alone in the elevator, until he squeezes between the doors. Just in time. The elevator whirs into action - and judders to a sickening halt.
That's when it happens. Lars locks eyes with Michelle. Thrusts a folder into her hands.
This is evidence. Hide it . . . I discovered something and I'll be silenced because of it.
Michelle's already run from her past. This time, she'll be running for her life . . .
