Night Visitor - Couverture souple

A chilling exploration of jealousy.

Rose’s early life was full of tragedy. Her father disappeared one night, presumed drowned, and her twin brother had died on his bicycle, a cherished tenth birthday present. Now, her husband, Michael provides her with the love and stability she so desper-ately needs. All she asks of him is complete fidelity, and when she has cause to doubt him, she devises a terrible revenge. Michael has planned an anniversary trip to Venice for the two of them. But as they ride in gondolas, dine on delicious food and wander the sights of this most romantic of cities, Rose, racked with secret jealousy, is making plans. By the time they return, Michael will be seriously ill – though not so ill that he cannot recognize the fact that something truly dreadful has happened to him.
