But he’s closer than you think.
Christmastime is torture for me. It’s a constant, brutal reminder of the day my husband was murdered. The decorations and merry cheers haunt me all through December, and there’s no escaping it. At least, not until I win a family trip to a secluded forest cottage.
But claiming the prize is the worst decision of my life. As soon as we arrive, a mysterious note appears on my pillow. It’s a threat from Nick’s killer, telling me he’s somewhere among the trees, watching, waiting for the perfect opportunity to come and finish the job.
And there’s no way home – the forest’s terrain is completely unwalkable. All we can do is sit and wait for our driver to pick us up. Only that’s days away, and the killer is coming closer than ever before, stepping foot inside our holiday home while we sleep.
It’s only a matter of time before he gets me.
THE WIDOW’S RETREAT is the new psychological thriller from Bristol author AJ Carter, whose books are bursting with mystery, danger, and multiple dark twists.
