The Cliffhanger by Emily Freud

Turn up the heat with this sizzling summer thriller

'Irresistible' Abigail Dean
'Mind blowing' Nikki Smith

STRAY TOO CLOSE TO THE EDGE . . .

New York-based writers Felix and Emma have it all. As the husband and wife team behind the bestselling Morgan Savage thrillers, their meteoric rise to global literary fame seemed unstoppable.

Until Felix messed up.

AND SOMEONE'S GOING TO GET HURT.

Now, the couple has been exiled to the south of France. Their sentence: a long, hot summer to cure their writers' block - and save their marriage.

But as tensions rise beneath the sweltering sun, Felix and Emma become trapped in a deathly plot of their own making . . .

The Cliffhanger is a mind blowing rollercoaster ride of a book!

Proving once again she's the mistress of 'one two punch' twists, Emily Freud's The Cliffhanger is a masterpiece thriller that will reel readers in and leave them totally hooked. With a wonderfully evoked South of France setting, central characters that are as dastardly as they are pitiful, and a plot that whips along at breakneck pace, Freud deftly combines the perfect ingredients for suspense - all the while winking a meta eye at the world of publishing. Thriller fans are in for a total treat! * Lizzy Barber *
The Cliffhanger is without a doubt Emily's darkest book yet. This is a twisty rollercoaster of a ride that will give you whiplash and make you question everyone and everything in it . . . plus it also has one of the best and most surprising endings I've ever read.

The perfect book to disappear into . . . I really, really loved it * Emma Curtis *

A husband and wife writing team who are not what they seem, a gorgeous South of France setting and some absolutely killer twists - loved it * Catherine Cooper *
Dastardly deeds, double crossing, a marriage on the rocks and a remote villa in France. What could possibly go wrong? True to the title, The Cliffhanger kept me reading chapter after chapter desperate to see the characters get their just deserts. So much fun! * Sam Holland *
A pair of married crime writers (just like us) in a toxic game of cat and mouse (not like us, most days . . . ) - what a killer premise for a thriller! This is a sun-soaked page-turner packed with deliciously terrible people and twist after twist. Loved it! * Ellery Lloyd *
