Description
A hot beach. A young family on holiday. A fatal moment of inattention...
And now Dave Jepsom is in their lives.
Dave Jepsom, with his muscles, his pale eyes, his expressionless face.
He saved their child. How can they ever repay him? Especially as what he seems to want in return is everything.
He's in the streets they walk down. He's at the office where they work. He's at their front door, leaning on the bell...
If only they could go back. Back to when the lies were still hidden. Before the holiday, before the beach, before the moment that changed everything.
Before Dave.
But it's never how it starts that matters. It's always how it ends.
'This class act of a novel is unputdownable.' Heat
'Fabulous stuff from one of our finest thriller writers' Sunday Mirror
'Sabine Durrant doesn't mess around: she's a cool, confident writer who knows exactly how to get into your psyche. Need a reminder of what makes thrillers great? Read this.' Emerald Street
'An ingeniously plotted drama with an ending you won't see coming.' Good Housekeeping
'I absolutely LOVED it - it's her best yet.' India Knight

Reviews / Votes
LIE WITH ME's Sabine Durrant is back with another twisty, turny, unputdownable thriller you'll want to make room for in your suitcase. TAKE ME IN is the perfect beach read. * Grazia * Brilliantly plotted with a story that cranks up with every page. You'll want to down this in one. * Fabulous Magazine * From the bestselling author of the excellent Lie With Me comes this even more sinister thriller. This class act of a novel is unputdownable. * Heat * Sabine Durrant writes fabulous endings. This novel has a belter. Along the way, she tears into competitive pretensions of the yummy mummies of South-West London and her success in nailing their deep shallows is one of the book's joys... (a) gloriously unexpected and explosive conclusion in this wonderful combination of social satire and psychological drama. * Daily Mail * I opened the book after breakfast and looked up again at three, wondering where the day had gone. Sabine Durrant is a master at turning the secret anxieties everyone holds into page-turning, nail-biting drama. -- Erin Kelly I loved it. Sabine Durrant skewers her characters' foibles with a merciless pen, combining page-turning tension with the blackest of black humour. I couldn't put it down -- JP Delaney, bestselling author of <i>The Girl Before</i> Highly entertaining... Read it for the smart dissection of modern life and love * Mail on Sunday * Gripping, chilling, perfectly nuanced. No one does creepy moral ambiguity quite like Sabine Durrant -- Tammy Cohen An assured, confident psychological thriller that is rich with menace. The tension and suspense tighten their grip so subtly you'll be holding your breath by the end. -- C.L. Taylor Excruciatingly tense and impossible to put down, TAKE ME IN is one of the best psychological thrillers I've ever read. I'll be amazed if a better book is published in 2018. -- Mark Edwards, author of <i>The Retreat</i>.More details
