"A well-plotted, atmospheric story of one woman's carefully-constructed world falling apart" from the author of Sewing the Shadows Together (Promoting Crime Fiction). From the outside, Olivia seems to lead an idyllic existence with her husband and children. But when she starts receiving notes, she knows her perfect life is under threat. She thought she'd managed to put the past behind her, but someone seems determined to reveal her secret. Meanwhile, girls are vanishing in the area and Olivia fears for her family's safety. There's a real reason that Olivia left Scotland all those years ago-and it may have links to the recent disappearances. When someone is out to get you, is there anywhere you can hide? "With many suspicious characters, several red-herrings, and a high 'creepiness' factor, this novel will be loved by many. Recommended to readers who enjoy a thriller with damaged characters, a stunning setting, secrets, creepy hotels, and a satisfying resolution." -Fictionophile "Reading this book was much like being on a scary and unpredictable rollercoaster ride with several twists and turns along the way." -gingerbookgeek "The book is well written and all characters are realistic and believable . . . quite an enjoyable, absorbing read." -Relax and Read Book Reviews

Autorenporträt
Alison Baillie was born in Scarborough of Scottish parents and lived in County Durham, Somerset and the Yorkshire Dales before going to university in Scotland. She then taught English in several Edinburgh secondary schools before moving to Switzerland where she still lives now. She¿s taught English as a Foreign Language in Finland and Switzerland. When she stopped teaching full-time, she fulfilled a life-time ambition and wrote Sewing the Shadows Together, a psychological suspense novel inspired in part by events when she was teaching in Scotland. She is fascinated by the way we are influenced by the events of our past and has now written a second novel, A Fractured Winter, set in Switzerland, Scotland and Yorkshire. She has two sons and three grandchildren and is proud of their international roots, having a mixture of Scottish, Swiss, Polish and Finnish heritage. As well as spending time with them, she loves travelling, walking in the mountains and by the sea, reading and writing.
