Already optioned for film, The Girl with a Clock for a
Heart is Peter Swanson’s electrifying tale of romantic
noir, with shades of Hitchcock and reminiscent of the
classic movie Body Heat. It is the story of a man swept
into a vortex of irresistible passion and murder when an
old love mysteriously reappears.
On an ordinary Friday evening at his favorite Boston
tavern, George Foss’s comfortable, predictable life is
shattered when a beautiful woman sits down at the bar, a
woman who vanished without a trace twenty years ago.
Liana Dector isn’t just an ex-girlfriend, the first love
George couldn’t quite forget. She’s also a dangerous
enigma and quite possibly a cold-blooded killer wanted by
the police. Suddenly, she’s back—and she needs George’s
help. Ruthless men believe she stole some money . . . and
they will do whatever it takes to get it back.
George knows Liana is trouble. But he can’t say no—he
never could—so he makes a choice that will plunge him
into a terrifying whirlpool of lies, secrets, betrayal,
and murder from which there is no sure escape.
Bold and masterful, full of malicious foreboding and
subtle surprises, The Girl with a Clock for a Heart is an
addictive, nonstop thriller—an ever-tightening coil of
suspense that grips you right up to its electrifying end.
