Description

'There was so much suspense I could feel my heart pound in my chest... This is the first book I've read by this author and it certainly will not be the last. Loved it!' Twilight Reader,

It was meant to be Caitlin's perfect summer, but betrayed by her best friend and her boyfriend, she finds herself hitchhiking home alone, heartbroken, and penniless.

When a smiling family pulls up on the roadside to help her on her way, she's relieved - they seem so friendly, safe. And when they offer her a warm bed in their isolated house for the night, she's grateful not to have to travel back alone in the dark. In any case, she's in no rush to get home, where a grave secret is lying in wait to blow her family apart.

One night soon turns into two, and then three. The increasingly spellbinding couple wants her to stay, and why shouldn't she? Their children need a tutor, and the longer she can avoid home, the better. But then an older member of the household warns her to leave immediately. And when her phone suddenly goes missing, when she realises that this perfect family is a perfect lie, it might not be so easy for her to leave...

A brilliantly suspenseful read, perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Mark Edwards and Claire Douglas.

Fantastic. From a quietly sinister start this story escalates rapidly; so tense, so creepy! The very definition of a page-turner. Jane's best yet!! So good! I loved it. -- Jackie Kabler * #1 bestselling author of The Perfect Couple *
Claustrophobic and creepy, Stay is a beautifully-written lockdown thriller that will really get under your skin. -- Mark Edwards * bestselling author of Keep Her Secret *
Unbearably dark and chilling. I couldn't put it down! -- Shalini Boland * bestselling author of The Silent Bride *
Claustrophobic, creepy, heart-in-mouth perilous and - as with any Bailey novel - some superbly drawn child characters. -- Caroline Sanderson * The Bookseller *
I started reading Jane Bailey's Stay quite late at night, and that was my first mistake, because I couldn't put it down! Such a unique and suspenseful piece of drama, masterfully done. -- Melanie Golding * #1 bestselling author of Little Darlings *
Stay brims with vivacity, verve, and energy. A brilliantly written, page-turning read. Loved it. -- J. A. Corrigan * bestselling author of The Nurse *

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.
