Synopsis
Miranda’s sister, Kerri, has a new boyfriend. He’s a raven-haired, handsome charmer who seems to dote on Kerri. But Brendan isn’t the man he says he is. Miranda should know, because she broke off her own affair with him just a few weeks ago when she found him reading her diary.
Now Brendan claims that it was he who ended their short-lived relationship—and everyone believes him. When he and Kerri announce their engagement, Miranda’s parents are thrilled for their shyer, less confident daughter. Then Kerri and Brendan beg Miranda to let them live in her apartment until their new home is ready. Against her better judgment, Miranda agrees.
Like a virus, Brendan starts spreading destruction throughout her life. He invades her privacy and disrupts her relationships with her family and friends. And then the real nightmare begins....
Like the obscenities he whispers into her ear, his onslaughts are as undetectable as they are devastating. Those closest to her begin to doubt her mental stability and accuse her of the very thing she believes drives Brendan: obsession. When Miranda decides to take off the gloves, fight back, and discover what is behind her enemy’s bemused, secret smile, the consequences will be terrifying.

About the Author
Nicci French is the author of the bestsellers Secret Smile, Land of the Living, The Red Room, Beneath the Skin, and Killing Me Softly, as well as two earlier books, The Memory Game and The Safe House, both published in England to great acclaim.
From AudioFile
The husband and wife team that is Nicci French has produced this psychological thriller, a story of obsession and terror for a British working woman that could easily be re-titled "The Dark Underbelly of Sex in the City." Anne Flosnik's boldly interpretive performance is breathtaking. She disappears into French's rich cavalcade of characters. When someone begins a phone call with just the whispered name of the person being called, we know exactly who is calling and that something awful is about to happen. Each character is full-blooded and idiosyncratic. With expert pacing and emphasis, Flosnik manages to convey shifts of emotion so expertly that her performance becomes as engrossing as the written words.
