Black Out cover

HER LIFE IS FALLING APART. PICKING UP THE PIECES COULD KILL HER...

On the surface, Annie Powers' life in a wealthy Florida suburb is happy and idyllic. Her husband, Gray, loves her fiercely and together they dote on their beautiful daughter, Victory. But cracks are beginning to appear as demons from Annie's past come back to haunt her. It is a past she has no memory of - and it won't let go.

Disturbing events - the appearance of a familiar dark figure on the beach, a mysterious murder - trigger strange and confusing memories for Annie. And as her world starts to fracture around her, she soon realises that she must piece those memories together before her past comes to claim her - and her daughter...

Unger is a brilliant storyteller...she knows exactly how to build the tension, creating moments of genuine peril for the reader's nails. This is Unger's third book and a welcome addition to the kind of crime fiction American writers do so well: larger than life, pacy, with flashes of humour and wisdom, and gripping to the end * Guardian *
A nail bitingly good psychological thriller * Daily Mail *
Black Out is riveting psychological suspense of the first order. If you haven't yet experienced Lisa Unger, what are you waiting for? -- Harlan Coben

I read Black Out in one hungry gulp, and spent the rest of the night trying to calm my jangled nerves.
This is a stunning, mind-bending shocker with moments of sheer terror-one of the best thrillers I've read this year!

-- Tess Gerritsen
Haunting and exciting in equal measure, you'll be terrified until the last page! * Closer *
