The Woman on the Ledge
Obsession, intrigue - and revenge. Get ready for an all-night read with one of the twistiest thrillers of 2024. A woman falls to her death from a London bank's twenty-fifth-floor roof terrace. You're arrested for her murder. You tell the police that you only met the victim the previous night at your office party. She was threatening to jump from the roof, but you talked her down. You've got nothing to do with tragedy. You're clearly being framed. So why do the police keep picking holes in your story? Even your lawyer doesn't seem to believe you. It soon becomes obvious that you're keeping secrets. But who are you trying to protect? And why? ___________ 'Compulsive, clever and gasp out loud twisty, I absolutely loved it' Lisa Jewell 'A pitch-perfect thriller. Highly recommended.'
