What to expect
THE CLASSIC LOST THRILLER FROM THE ICONIC NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER
* * * * *
It always starts with a small lie. That's how you stop noticing the bigger ones.
After his friend suspects something strange going on at the launch facility where they both work - and then goes missing - Martin Hepton doesn't believe the official line of "long-term sick leave"...
Refusing to stop asking questions, he leaves his old life behind, aware that someone is shadowing his every move.
The only hope he has is his ex-girlfriend Jill Watson - the only journalist who will believe his story.
But neither of them can believe the puzzle they're piecing together - or just how shocking the secret is that everybody wants to stay hidden...
A gripping, page-turning suspense masterclass - available in print for the first time in nearly thirty years.
