On her first shift at an Edinburgh halfway house for violent offenders, a young woman is taken hostage … and that\'s just the beginning… The twisty, shocking, darkly funny thriller by award-winning author Helen FitzGerald.   \'A new novel from Helen Fitzgerald is always a major event … magnificent\' Mark Billingham   ‘Outrageous, hilarious and dark as hell – this is Helen FitzGerald on absolute top form’ Doug Johnstone   ‘[Lou] is irresistible and very funny … The set-up is fascinating, the narrative is both fast-moving and convincing’ Literary Review   _______  They’re the housemates from Hell… When her disastrous Australian love affair ends, Lou O’Dowd heads to Edinburgh for a fresh start, moving in with her cousin, and preparing for the only job she can find … working at a halfway house for very high-risk offenders. Two killers, a celebrity paedophile and a paranoid coke dealer – all out on parole and all sharing their outwardly elegant Edinburgh townhouse with rookie night-worker Lou… And instead of finding some meaning and purpose to her life, she finds herself trapped in a terrifying game of cat and mouse where she stands to lose everything – including her life. Slick, darkly funny and nerve-janglingly tense, Halfway House is both a breathtaking thriller and an unapologetic reminder never to corner a desperate woman…   __________________________  ‘Tense, claustrophobic and laugh-out-loud funny … an amazingly talented writer’ Michael Wood   ‘A genius combination of horror, humour and humanity\' B M Carroll  Praise for Helen FitzGerald   **Shortlisted for Theakston Crime Novel of the Year**   \'Sharp, shocking and savagely funny’ Chris Whitaker   ‘Dark, dark, deliciously dark\' Amanda Jennings   \'Wickedly funny, breath-stealingly tense and utterly chilling\' Miranda Dickinson   \'The main character is one of the most extraordinary you\'ll meet between the pages of a book\' Ian Rankin \'Sublime\' Guardian \'A dark, comic masterpiece\' Mark Edwards \'Urgent, angry, absolutely terrifying’ Erin Kelly \'Tantalisingly powerful\' The Times \'The classic thriller gets a hell of a twist\' Heat \'FitzGerald writes like a more focused Irvine Welsh or a less misogynist Philip Roth\' Daily Telegraph \'Domestic life is rarely served up quite so dark as this’ Sun Σελίδες: 300, Έτος Έκδοσης: 0118, Διαστάσεις: 12.9x12.9cm
