We found Obsessed rigorous and sobering, exposing how fixation escalates into violence and how institutional hesitation repeatedly fails those most at risk.
As Independent Scottish booksellers, we write all of our descriptions personally, we hope you enjoy this one.
Laura has everything she once hoped for. A husband, children, and a home in a city she loves. She tells herself this life is enough, that the past can stay buried. If no one knows her secret, she can be happy.
Then Alexis returns. Her first love, intense and irresistible, the one person who can undo her careful balance. Laura knows she should walk away. She knows what is at risk. Still, she cannot stop.
When Alexis is found dead, Laura’s carefully constructed life begins to fracture. The police arrive with questions, and Laura answers them with lies. She insists she is innocent, even as the truth slips further from her grasp.
As suspicion tightens and old choices resurface, it becomes clear that someone has been watching her. Someone who knows what she has been running from. Someone determined to make her pay.
A tense psychological thriller about desire, secrecy and the cost of refusing to let the past go.
