A terrible accident. A secret discovered. An inescapable nightmare. Who needs enemies with friends like these? The unnerving new novel from the acclaimed author of LULLABY En route from ending a destructive love affair, TV producer Maggie Warren is involved in a freak accident. Lucky to escape with her life, Maggie's further disturbed to discover she's now front-page news. When invited to discuss her trauma on a chat-show, Maggie comes face to face with fellow survivor, the beautiful but damaged Fay Carter - fame-hungry, needy and now apparently infatuated. One by one the tentacles of Maggie's past mistakes seem to be reaching inexorably into her future. Her compromised career is catching up with her, ex-boyfriend Alex just won't take no for an answer - but worse, the secret Maggie has tried so hard to bury is coming back to haunt her. When Maggie's flat is ransacked, she refuses to believe it's a coincidence. Now Maggie's clutching onto sanity for dear life, but she's horribly aware that one final push might send her over the edge…or is that exactly what someone wants?

About the Author
Hello & nice to see you here!...A bit about me: I'm a Londoner who, due to unforeseen circumstances, became a single mum to my boys, which has inspired a lot of my writing... before becoming a mother and a writer, I started professional life as a (bad) actress and then became a documentary maker, a journalist and a writer of, so far, psychological thrillers. The Washington Post said 'The opening pages of LULLABY couldn't be much better'; The Observer said of my first novel: 'a disturbing debut' whilst The Guardian called it 'powerful'...I am also a qualified Gestalt therapist (as in psychotherapist) and I see clients alongside writing. In the downtime, I try (!) to manage a home of slightly feral teenagers and animals, along with my partner's help: he's a special needs teacher. I LOVE the theatre too, and have written a few plays, pursuing my love of all things dramatic. My main ambition is to move to the sea as soon as I can - all those positive atoms! NB I love America: I've been to New York a few times, to LA, San Fran, Miami (loved South Beach) & Oklahoma. There's so much more to see though :). Also I was lucky enough to film 2 documentaries in Australia - spending 3 weeks in Melbourne which became, briefly, a home from home! My own website is www.claireseeber.com and you can find me on Twitter, Facebook and instagram as Claireseeberauthor ...Thank you & Happy reading:)
