CROSS HER HEART is a
captivating read written by Sarah Pinborough. A brilliantly twisted,
unsettling yet compelling novel that is a must-read for fans of
psychological thrillers.
A slow-burning read that starts out slowly to set the framework for an
emotional chilling story full of unexpected twists and turns. You just
can predict what is about to happen. The first few chapters are the
author's way of setting the scene, introducing you to the characters
and their backstories. CROSS HER
HEART has three main characters: Lisa, a mother who is haunted
by a dark past, her sixteen-year-old daughter, Ava, and Lisa's best
friend, Marilyn.
The middle of CROSS HER HEART
picks up quickly and has shocking moments leaving you questioning
"what" and "why?" Pinborough brilliantly executes the storyline in a
nail-biting way that is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat. This
story is as much about the characters as it is the plot.
CROSS HER HEART is both a
shocking and harrowing read. A story that will leave you second
guessing until the very end. A remarkable psychological thriller that is
sure to stay with you after reading. I highly recommend CROSS HER HEART to anyone who
loves a heart-pounding thriller.
The New York Times bestselling author of Behind
Her Eyes returns with a twisty, hair-raising
psychological thriller about a single mom, her daughter, and
her best friend, the secrets they hide, and the danger they
can't escape.
"Sarah Pinborough is about to become
your new obsession."—Harlan Coben
Lisa lives a very
quiet life. A single mother nearing forty, she devotes
herself to raising her sixteen-year-old daughter, Ava. Wary
of men, Lisa doesn't speak of her past or Ava's absent
father. Her best friend Marilyn wishes she would open up
more and maybe finally go on a date—with the sexy new client
who's obviously keen—but Marilyn has problems of her
own.
Ava is getting tired of her overprotective
mother. She wants to live like a normal teenager—chill with
friends, go to swim practice, study for exams, have a
boyfriend. Her mom would freak if she knew that Ava's
already got someone special, someone who makes her feel
sophisticated—and wanted.
Lisa has spent a long time
looking over her shoulder, but lately she's been especially
uneasy. Small things from the past have begun to appear in
the present, feeding her anxiety. As her life begins to
unravel, Lisa knows that the only way she can protect
herself and her daughter is to face her fears. Yet courage
won't be enough. She'll need help from the only person she
can trust—Marilyn. Between them they have to save Ava, and
to do that, they have to be honest with each other. Truly
honest. Marilyn did promise she'd do anything to
help.
But a long time ago, Lisa made a promise too.
Then she broke her word. And that betrayal hasn't been
forgotten—or forgiven.
Now, someone is going to make
her pay for her sin.
