Nuala Ellwood

    Inspirée par les expériences de son père, journaliste primé, et par celles de correspondants étrangers, Nuala Ellwood s'est plongée dans la recherche sur le TSPT. Ce parcours de recherche a façonné son premier thriller psychologique. Ellwood explore dans son écriture les profonds impacts psychologiques du traumatisme et son influence sur l'esprit humain. Sa prose se caractérise par un aperçu perçant des recoins les plus sombres de la psyché humaine, évoquant des émotions fortes.

Měla dokonce pocit, že svého bezchybného partnera už našla, ale čím déle s Connorem chodila, tím víc ji kritizoval a jejich vztah se vytrácel. Ale Vanessa věděla, jak se zbavit stresu. Našla si drogu v realitních nabídkách luxusních domů.Převlékla se za dámu z vyšší společnosti a chodila si prohlížet vily a paláce pod záminkou hledání nového domova pro svou imaginární dokonalou rodinu. Ani jednu z navštívených nemovitostí by si nemohla dovolit, ale o to tady nešlo. Hlavní byl chvilkový únik do světa, kde je všechno v pořádku.Vypadalo to jako neškodná zábava, ale jen do chvíle, než se v jednom z domů našel mrtvý muž. Policie teď Vanessu hledá jako svědkyni, která ho naposledy viděla živého. Záhadné propojení pomůže vysvětlit až Vanessina sestra, která ji vychovala místo matky, a dávný tajemný přítel z dětství. Ten na rozdíl od Vanessina vylhaného dokonalého života nebyl ani trochu imaginární...
