The Winding Stair by Millie Vigor
A single red rose on her doorstep and anonymous phone calls have reduced writer Ginny Harvey to a nervous wreck. Seeking peace and telling no one where she is going, she runs away, but a rose is delivered to her hideaway. Back home, she is at breaking point when suddenly the roses and calls stop. Feeling safe again, she forms a friendship with Curtis, a quiet librarian. But she realizes too late that the man in whom she has placed her trust is a cruel predator. Finding herself at Curtis's mercy, she is reminded of the poem 'The Spider and the Fly'. She has walked up the winding stair, but will she walk free, or will she perish like the fly?
Millie Vigor was born in Dorset and was educated at Ludwell village school. At fourteen she left to start work and she considers this the beginning of her real education. Throughout her many jobs; kitchenmaid, farm-worker, glove-maker, canteen cook and B&B landlady, she took note of what made people tick and of sights and sounds, and stored this all away to use in her writing. In addition to articles and short stories sold to various magazines, her autobiographical book Kippers for Breakfast was published in 2003. Her recent books No Skylarks Sing and Paying Davy Jones were published by Robert Hale. She lives in Taunton, Somerset with her constant companion, a cat called Harriet.
