In THE WARNING, Chloe attempts to track down a stranger -- intent on repaying
him -- for his act of kindness toward her and her daughter. During her search,
she meets Nadine, who cautions Chloe to stay far, far away from the Good
Samaritan. "Give him nothing, tell him nothing, don't trust him."
Will Chloe heed the warning or will she follow her heart? How dangerous could
he be? And can she find the answers without putting herself and her daughter in
harm's way?
The answers to those questions have made Sophie Hannah my new favorite
suspense author! Her short story is the first of her work that I've read, but she
left me wanting more of her spiraling and suspenseful tales.
Unlike most stories that have a twist, usually you'll see some portion of it
coming. However, THE WARNING takes a turn that leaves you asking, "What the
heck just happened?" You will never know whom you can trust after reading this
short story.
I love that feeling after finishing a novel; the one that makes you think about the
book days after finishing it. Sophie Hannah has a talent for surprises! THE
WARNING will leave you speechless. You will never know whom you can trust
after reading this short story. Then again, would you take THE WARNING yourself,
or follow what you feel?
For fans of GONE GIRL and THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN, a gripping
short story from the New York Times bestselling author of
WOMAN WITH A SECRET.Don't say I didn't warn you…
When a kindly stranger does Chloe a good deed, she decides she
must repay him. But in tracing him, she meets a sympathetic
woman named Nadine, who warns Chloe to stay away from the man
at all costs. "Give him nothing, tell him nothing, don't trust
him," she says. "Avoid him like the plague."
Chloe knows the sensible thing to do: walk away. But her
curiosity gets the best of her. What is the truth about the
good Samaritan? How dangerous could he be? And can Chloe find
the answers without putting herself and her daughter in harm's
way?
A twisting, razor-sharp suspense story that will keep you
guessing to the very end, THE WARNING features an appearance
from Simon Waterhouse, next seen in the full-length thriller
WOMAN WITH A SECRET—already hailed as "mesmerizing" (Lisa
Gardner) and "unputdownable" (Liane Moriarty).
