New Book Release & Giveaway! The Devil's Work by Mark Edwards

I've been a fan of Mark Edward's slow burning thrillers for the last few years now, starting with Because She Loves Me, which I brought with me to a wedding abroad (and kept furtively sneaking a read of, in between family photos) and then Follow You Home last year which creeped me out completely and made me slightly terrified of both trains and Eastern Europe.

The Devil's Work by Mark Edwards

I'm only 120 pages into his latest, The Devil's Work and am already completely gripped. I had to put it down for the last couple of weeks to finish my book club book in time but now I'm straight back with protagonist Sophie, who following her parental leave to look after her daughter Daisy, has just accepted the job of a lifetime with a well established publishing firm. Even though she's only a few days in to the job, she begins to have misgivings about one of her colleagues, who she starts to suspect wishes to succeed at any costs, regardless of who gets in her way. An unnerving encounter with the head of the company stirs up dark memories from Sophie's past, after which both her work and home life begin falling apart. I'm currently trying really hard to figure out the connection between Sophie's past and what's happening with her assistant but it looks like Mr Edwards may have foiled me again! I'll have to wait til the end. The good news is that one of you gets to do the same because Thomas & Mercer have very kindly provided me with a brand new copy to give away too!

Double the creep factor...my copy on the right, yours on the left!

So if you're a fan of thrillers, or of Mark Edwards work, or you just want an exciting new book to read this Autumn, all you need to do is let me know why you would like to see this come through your letterbox, using whichever platform suits you! Leave me a comment here, or on Facebook, retweet on Twitter, or even Instagram! I'lll pick a name at random and will contact you for your address (so you'll need to be over 18 or have parental permission to enter). Open to residents of Ireland and UK only.
I will, as always, have a full review up once I've finished!
