The Lying Guest

*AN UNMISSABLE, EDGE OF YOUR SUN-LOUNGER THRILLER' A smart, twisty thriller that will transport you to the lush beaches of Sri Lanka ... just be careful who you trust when you visit. Hardworking and overworked, Anika is a talented surgeon at a London hospital. Its been some time since shes had a decent nights sleep, let alone a holiday. Not ideal for someone with parasomnia a rare, often stress-induced, condition that causes sleepwalking blackouts. When a patient dies on her operating table, important people start asking questions and the media and her colleagues turn against her overnight. It seems her only respite is to escape on an all-expenses-paid housesitting gig in Sri Lanka and keep a low profile until the drama passes, and the verdict on her case and career as a surgeon is decided. But what should be a restorative beach break becomes a trip back into a murky, haunted past, which has been waiting for her all along... Praise for Mahi Cheshire 'Thrilling' ADELE PARKS 'Grabs the reader by the heart ... stellar' ERIN KELLY 'Addictive and brilliant' GYTHA LODGE 'Ramps up the tension again and again' EMILY BARR
