Book description
'A very classy crime yarn' Manchester Evening NewsAlthough to all
appearances Suzanne and Carl Peters live an idyllic life in pretty St
Ives, beneath the veneer of domestic bliss lurks a dark secret which
threatens to destroy everything they hold dear. For the last seven years
they have lived a lie, lived in fear that the violence of the past will
catch up with them, and now it seems that their worst nightmares are
coming true. Suzanne was a damaged child, and she has grown into a
damaged woman. For seven years Carl has protected her from her terrors,
sheltered her from the world for which she seems ill-equipped, but when
a series of poison pen letters disturb long-buried ghosts, Suzanne and
Carl's carefully guarded world explodes with shocking consequences.
Engrossing, chilling and utterly compelling, A Deep Deceit is a tour de
force of sexual intrigue and obsessive love with a startling sting in
its tail. Hilary Bonner is a former showbusiness editor of the
Mail on Sunday
and the Daily Mirror.
She now lives in Somerset, and continues to work as a freelance
journalist, covering film, television and theatre. She is the author of
four previous novels, The Cruelty of Morning, A Fancy to Kill For, A
Passion So Deadly
and For Death Comes Softly.
