"A CLINGING ATMOSPHERE OF CLAUSTROPHOBIC DREAD" Jack Tyson's past is a mystery, but some things are certain. He used to be very rich and very successful... and something terrible happened to take all that away. Now, at risk of being arrested or worse, he lives in a small northern town under an assumed name with his wife, Harriet, and their paralysed son. But this life isn't enough for Jack. The lies they have woven around themselves protect them from harm but trap Jack in an existence that is worse than he could have imagined. He wants more and is willing to risk anything to get it. But something strange and sinister is going on in the town. Jack is being watched and followed and a menacing intruder in the middle of the night hints of imminent and encroaching danger. The harder Jack tries to better himself, the harder his life becomes, until only one conclusion is possible. He isn't being paranoid - someone is out to get him - and unless he takes action immediately, it may be far too late to escape. "I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT"
