Inhaltsangabe

He searched for a way to disappear. Then he searched for the people watching him. His final search was the question nobody wanted answered. How many people have I already killed? That night, reclusive tech billionaire Adrian Kell's car was swept off the flooded causeway to his Northumberland island. By morning, his search history was on the front page of every newspaper in the country. Owen Pryce reads searches for a living. A former National Crime Agency investigator still haunted by the night his eight-year-old daughter waited fifty-one minutes for an ambulance, he is the one man the dead billionaire named in his will to examine his devices. No one else. Then, days after Kell drowned, his account searches for Owen's daughter's name. Somebody wrote this man mad. Somebody fed his confession to the press. And somebody sat in his chair, with the lamp on, while he was still in the sea. As the tide closes the causeway twice a day, Owen is knifed, nearly drowned, hunted across a burning island croft and arrested by the very people he is trying to expose. Every answer drags him deeper into the buried truth about a company that decides where every ambulance in the north waits, and who pays for that decision in minutes. Everyone in this story is counting something. Someone is counting the dead. A gripping psychological thriller with a twist you won't see coming, set on the wild Northumberland coast.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Veronica Chase writes psychological thrillers for readers who like their mysteries dark, intelligent, atmospheric, and impossible to put down. Veronica is fascinated by the hidden side of human behavior: the secrets people protect, the lies they tell themselves, and the moments when an ordinary life can fracture without warning. Her thrillers are built around one question: What if the truth is far more dangerous than the lie? When she isn't writing, Veronica can usually be found collecting strange real-world stories, exploring forgotten places, researching human psychology, or turning unsettling "what if?" questions into new stories. She believes the best thrillers shouldn't simply surprise you. They should stay with you.
