'Jo Spain at her brilliant best' ANDREA MARA

For one week, everything in Luke Miller's life is perfect. Surprised with a belated honeymoon by his wife, Rose, he's had seven days with her in a Caribbean paradise. It's more than he ever thought he'd deserve.

But as they pack their bags, Rose breaks down, confessing that on the day they left London, a violent man from her past tracked her down and broke into their home. He wasn't expecting her to fight back. And, in her terror, Rose killed him. Now there's a dead body in Luke's apartment, and only one person he can think to turn to.

Mickey Sheils never expected to hear from Luke again, not after he disappeared the first time. Luke knows Mickey can't deny a woman who needs help, so she promises she'll deal with things - she'll make sure Rose doesn't have to keep running.

But it turns out, some lies are too big to run from.

Reviews
Don't Look Back is a beautifully controlled thriller full of brilliant writing, great characters and smart twists. I loved it * Tim Weaver *
A griptastic thriller, Jo Spain's Don't Look Back keeps us guessing as the story twists itself inside out and upside down. Everyone has secrets, but how many of them are deadly? Brilliant characterisation and plotting as we have come to expect from Jo. Compelling, enthralling and entertaining * Liz Nugent *

A cast of credible characters, razor-sharp writing and a compelling ending ensures Don't Look Back is very hard to set aside. Devour it * Sunday Independent *
