'Doughty is a brilliant storyteller who knows how to build suspense to breaking point.' The Times
The latest from the Number One Sunday Times Bestselling author Louise Doughty
Bird is a woman on the run. One minute, she's in a meeting in her office in Birmingham - the next, she's walking out on her job, her home, her life. It's a day she thought might come, and one she's prepared for - but nothing could prepare her for what will happen next. As she flees north using multiple disguises, Bird has to work out who exactly is on her trail, and who - if anyone - she can trust. Like many people, she has fantasised about escape for a long time, but now it's actually happening. Is her greatest fear that she will be hunted down, or that she will never be found?

Gripping and well written tale
I really enjoyed the engaging and credible female protagonist. I felt I had a good understanding of her relationships and thinking. Fantastic images of Iceland.

Fabulously suspensful
Listened to a podcast of the author speaking of this book! What a tale, a tale with twists, turns, heart-wrenching, beauty, and suspense. Also, wonderfully narrated! Loved it!

So detailed - journey to where?
It is written with significant detail, and performed well. But the destination? Oh my? Perhaps something more substantial from the effort in content would have been appreciated.

Great descriptive language
Unusual story. Srong independent women on the run from sinister forces. Ending left to your own imagination.

Wonderful story - great narration
I enjoyed every moment of this book - a spy thriller with a female protagonist which is about betrayal and secrets but also about loss, connection and reconnection . I definitely recommend this to anyone looking for an easy to follow but in depth story .

Maybe there is a sequel
Disappointing at the end. I had hoped for something that would not leave me wondering
