Genevieve has finally escaped the stressful demands of her sales job and achieved her dream: to leave London behind and start a new life aboard a houseboat in Kent. But on the night of her boat-warming party the dream is shattered when a body washes up beside the boat, and Genevieve recognises the victim. As the sanctuary of the boatyard is threatened, and Genevieve's life seems increasingly at risk, the story of how she came to be so out of her depth is unfolded, and Genevieve finds out the real cost of mixing business with pleasure. Elizabeth Haynes is also the author of Into the Darkest Corner, Human Remains Never Alone and The Murder of Harriet Monckton.

Recensioner i media

'Elizabeth Haynes is extremely good at developing believable characters. A marvellous mix of intrigue and mystery.' - Glynis Railton, Instagrammer; 'Into the Darkest Corner was my personal favourite book of 2011... how would the author follow on from her debut, would I enjoy it, would I find it compelling too? The answer to both is a definite yes... gripping.' - Little Reader Library; 'Fabulous reading - a real page-turner and virtually unputdownable.' - Beadyjans Bookshelf; 'Gripping murder mystery... Haynes is skilled at moving seamlessly from the present into the past, building up curiosity and suspense.' - Peterborough Telegraph; 'Dangerous stuff, mixing business with pleasure. Verdict: a thriller star on the rise.' - Courier-Mail; 'Delivers everything I crave from a murder mystery; suspense, emotion, an element of humour, surprise, and, just when I thought I had the answers, Haynes adds another twist.' - Pretty Litter; 'A thoroughly gripping read.' - Crimesquad; 'Packed with unexpected twists and turns... Revenge of the Tide surges towards its thrilling conclusion.' - Pamreader; 'What does compel our attention is the portrait of an alternative community afloat on barges, as well as the unfolding drama of Genevieve's recent past on the edge of a criminal world.' - The Age; 'It is every bit as engaging [as Into The Darkest Corner]... I thoroughly enjoyed this excellent read. Plenty for reading groups to discuss.' - newbooks; 'Full of suspense and intrigue and keeps the reader hanging on its every word, as well as being very well written... Very highly recommended.' - Euro Crime; 'Everything you could possibly want from a thriller... Do you want to add tension and intrigue to your everyday life? Read this novel. Now.' - Book After Book; 'This is the difficult-to-put-down second book.' - The Bookbag; 'This racy jeopardy thriller... proves that Haynes' much-praised first novel was no fluke.' - Morning Star; 'Unputdownable, this thriller with a heart of gold reads like a breath of fresh air.' - Red; '[Haynes] might have been expected to produce a conventional procedural. Instead, she plays with the form and, in doing so, subverts it... her initial success was no accident.' - Sunday Express; 'Fear about the loss of control is at the heart of readers' obsession with crime...That she lends Genevieve power over fear, her body and the men for whom she dances has enabled Haynes to create a character with more complexity than is usual in genre thrillers.' - Independent on Sunday; 'Haynes does a great job in ratcheting up the suspense...and there are many lip-biting moments.' - Daily Mail

Övrig information

Elizabeth Haynes is a former police intelligence analyst who lives in Norfolk with her husband and son. Her first novel, Into the Darkest Corner, was Amazon's Best Book of the Year 2011 and a New York Times bestseller. Now published in 37 countries, it was originally written as part of National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), an online challenge to write a 50,000 word novel in the month of November. She has written a further three psychological thrillers-Revenge of the Tide, Human Remains and Never Alone-and two novels in the DCI Louisa Smith series, Under a Silent Moon and Behind Closed Doors. Next came her highly praised historical novel The Murder of Harriet Monckton (a Sunday Times Summer Read) which is based on the 1843 unsolved murder of a young school teacher in Bromley, Kent. Elizabeth's latest novel, You, Me and the Sea is a contemporary story of love and redemption set on a remote, windswept Scottish island.
