A devilish psychological thriller from the widely loved GJ Minett, for fans of The Girl Before and Lie with Me.

You'd do anything for the one that got away . . . wouldn't you?

When Billy Orr returns home to spend time with his dying sister, he bumps into his ex-girlfriend Aimi, the love of his life. He might not have seen her in eleven years, but Billy's never forgotten her. He'd do anything for her then, and he'd do anything for her now.

When Aimi tells him that she wants to escape her abusive husband, Billy agrees to help her fake her own death. But is she still the Aimi that Billy remembers from all those years ago?

Once Aimi disappears, Billy has to face the possibility that perhaps she had different reasons for disappearing - reasons that might be more dangerous than she's led him to believe . . .

Sometimes trusting the one you love is the wrong thing to do.

This is a complex, intricate and incredibly well executed plot full of hidden layers, twists, sub plots and emotional journeys, all masterfully brought together in a highly readable and extremely satisfying thriller. Anything For Her is ambitious, dark, fascinating and deeply rewarding. Minett's prose is also exquisite. This is a compelling crime fiction thriller yet it is also full of beautifully written, detailed descriptive passages. The quote below is from the opening but there are numerous other paragraphs which helped to establish tension or created a moment to pause and reflect on a character...Yes you should read it. * Bibliomaniac UK *

This was a twisty and intelligent read, skilfully written with well crafted and rounded characters. G.J Minett weaves a tale full of lies and deceit, playing a game of manipulation to rival Aimi, with the perfect ending!
