Never rely on the kindness of strangers…

You trust me with your home, yet we’ve never met. While you’re away, I tend to your French chateau. Or so you believe.

But behind your back I immerse myself in your life of luxury – sipping your wine, lounging by your pool, wearing your designer clothes.

And now I’m addicted to the high life, I can’t let it go.

It’s simply to die for…

An unputdownable thriller about secret, lies and deadly obsession. Perfect for fans of Claire McGowan, Lisa Jewell and Shari Lapena.
