The Folding World Paperback – 28 Oct. 2014


Sometimes you can't hide from the past. You have to fight it.

Alina Frame is about to qualify as a doctor in Rome when bureaucratic incompetence and the murder of a foreign sex-worker force her to confront her past.

As she fights to protect her marriage, career and, ultimately, life from those who once came near to destroying her and threaten to do so once again, she uncovers a crime she had never, in her wildest nightmares, imagined possible.

This gripping psychological thriller is concerned with power, its indifference to individual lives and its misuses, and the casual transformation of human beings into bargaining chips, or worse.
