The Comfort Of Strangers by Roberta Grieve
A vacationing English couple find more than they bargained for, in this unsettling novel from the Booker Prize-winning author of Atonement. Visiting an unnamed city, Mary and Colin attract the interest of Robert, a charismatic older man with a story to tell. But the more they get to know Robert--and his disabled wife, Caroline--the more apparent it becomes that there's something not quite right about their new friends. A shocking work of violence and obsession, The Comfort of Strangers is Ian McEwan at his very best.

She is secretary of the Chichester Writers' Circle and editor of the Chichester Literary Society's Quarterly newsletter.
