THE HIDING PLACE by John Burley

She can’t reach him … but he can get to her … A chilling twisty tale of cat and mouse – perfect for fans of Linwood Barclay and Harlan Coben. Dr Lise Shields works with the most deadly criminals in America. At Menaker psychiatric hospital all are guilty and no one ever leaves. Then she meets Jason Edwards. Jason is an anomaly. No transfer order, no patient history, no paperwork at all. Is he really guilty of the horrific crimes he’s been sentenced for? Caught up in a web of unanswered questions and hastily concealed injustices, the spotlight begins to shine on Lise. She’s being watched, and the doors of Menaker psychiatric hospital are closing in. In Lise’s quest to discover the truth, is there anywhere left to hide?

“It’s become a cliché to say you read a book in one sitting, and it’s not true hereI had to get up in the middle of No Mercy for a drink to calm my nerves.” Linwood Barclay.

“ A wonderful psychological thriller’ The Sun
