In The Dark

Do you know what they're hiding in the house next door?

--------

'Your next riveting, twisty read!' Shari Lapena

'Twist follows twist at a breath-taking pace' Daily Mail

'The new queen of the cliffhanger' John Marrs

A woman and child are found locked in a basement room, barely alive.

No one knows who they are - the woman can't speak, and there are no missing persons reports that match their profile. The elderly man who owns the house claims he has never seen them before.

The inhabitants of the quiet Oxford street are in shock. How could this happen right under their noses? But DI Adam Fawley knows that nothing is impossible.

And that no one is as innocent as they seem . . .

The second twisty, up-all-night thriller from the Sunday Times bestselling Cara Hunter. For fans of Shari Lapena, Claire Douglas and Lisa Jewell.

a lively read that combines some of The Martian’s space-science themes with elements of political intrigue, heist plotting, a dash of neo-noir, and…the economic implications of lunar colonization—all with some comedy throughout

—— TWINCITIESGEEK.COM

After managing to bring hard, accurate science to the masses with The Martian, Andy Weir cuts loose with a lunar-set heist caper that should both please those who enjoy his attention and those who fell for his obvious ability to spin an entertaining yarn. The city of Artemis is meticulously constructed...it's a living, breathing place that's fun to explore and Jazz makes for an excellent guide. A SF thriller that wants you to have fun and it delivers

—— SCI FI NOW (Must Read Now)

Weir has written yet another clever and action-fuelled story packed with the author's trademark wry humour and fast-paced science. Artemis is pure entertainment - a fun and adventurous book brimming with wit, intelligence and ingenuity

—— CULTUREFLY

Weir excels when it comes to geeky references, snarky humour and scenes of ingenious scientific problem-solving
