Sometimes it''s safer to let things lie....

Quando la sera torni dal lavoro. Quando, passo dopo passo, percorri la strada di sempre. È allora che diventi la sua preda. Tu non lo conosci. Ma lui conosce te. È il solito viso stanco quello che Zoe Walker, madre quarantenne e divorziata di due figli, intravede riflesso nel finestrino del treno che la sta riportando a casa. È un venerdì come tanti, e dopo un''intera settimana trascorsa ad assecondare un capo impossibile, tutto ciò che desidera è accoccolarsi sul divano tra le braccia del nuovo compagno, Simon. Ma mentre sfoglia impaziente e distratta una copia della London Gazette, la sua mano si blocca di colpo. Perché il volto di donna che pare fissarla da quelle pagine gualcite, un po'' fuori fuoco ma inconfondibile in mezzo alle immagini equivoche delle hotline a pagamento, altri non è che il suo. E se i famigliari insistono che debba trattarsi di un errore o di uno scherzo, Zoe non può fare a meno di restarne turbata, anche quando l''indirizzo web che accompagna la foto si rivela inesistente. La sua inquietudine si trasforma in incubo quando, sullo stesso giornale e corredata dal solito indirizzo Internet, appare la foto di un''altra donna, che in capo a pochi giorni viene ritrovata uccisa alla periferia di Londra. Nessuno, nelle forze dell''ordine o in famiglia, sembra disposto a credere che tra l''omicidio e gli annunci del misterioso sito findtheone.com possa esistere un legame. Ma mentre il conto delle vittime sale inesorabile, il sospetto che quella di Zoe non sia semplice paranoia si fa strada nella mente dell''agente Kelly Swift, abile e impulsiva detective in cerca di riscatto. Personaggi appassionanti, verosimiglianza, e una tecnica infallibile nell''architettare i più astuti colpi di scena: sono queste le qualità che hanno decretato il successo di Clare Mackintosh. Parola di Paula Hawkins, Fiona Barton, Jojo Moyes, Lee Child. E di molti altri ancora. "Un romanzo coinvolgente, carico di tensione e di compassione". - PAULA HAWKINS, autrice di La ragazza del treno "Una trama che andrebbe studiata all''università e il colpo di scena più spiazzante di sempre: non sono riuscita a posarlo". - JOJO MOYES, autrice di Io prima di te "Meravigliosamente sinistro. Non camminerai mai più per strada senza guardarti alle spalle". - FIONA BARTON, autrice di La vedova "So tutto di te è una spanna sopra gli altri. L''ho adorato dall''inizio alla fine". - RENÉE KNIGHT, autrice di La vita perfetta "Semplicemente straordinario". - LEE CHILD "Originale, sconcertante e al cento per cento verosimile". - The Times "È così che si scrive un thriller". - The New York Times Book Review "Questo romanzo scritto da Clare Mackintosh è una calamita per gli amanti del genere, elettrizzante e coinvolgente quanto realistico [...] Mackintosh sa come scrivere un thriller". - Daniela Mastromattei, «Libero»

Un thriller psicológico que «te deja sin aliento» (Daily Mail), por la autora de Te dejé ir. ¿Un error? ¿Una asombrosa coincidencia? ¿O algo más? Como cada día, Zoe regresa de trabajar en el metro de Londres. Sin embargo, al abrir el periódico encontrará algo que perturbará su apacible vida. Un anuncio de la sección de clasificados lleva su foto. No hay explicación alguna: solamente la imagen granulada de Zoe, la dirección de una página web y un número de teléfono. Su familia está convencida de que el misterio no es tal, sino solamente un caso de extraordinario parecido físico. Pero, día tras día, en el anuncio aparece la foto de una mujer distinta... y su presencia en los clasificados parece ser el presagio de un mal que les ha de acontecer. Zoe siente que alguien la observa, que alguien estudia cada uno de sus movimientos, y no cesará hasta descubrir quién se esconde tras las sombras. Pero el enigma quizá encierre un peligro al que no quiera enfrentarse... Reseñas: «Sorprendente, original... y terriblemente cercano a una posible realidad.» The Times «Espeluznante. Un thriller profundamente perturbador.» Heat «Te deja sin aliento.» Daily Mail «Un thriller inteligente y único.» Sunday TimesENGLISH DESCRIPTION "[A] well-told suspense story...refreshingly realistic." —The New York Times Book Review "Danger feels real in the brilliant I See You…Mackintosh seems destined to do important work for many years to come." —The Washington Post "Mackintosh allots her characters the perfect amount of back story, allowing them to carry their own weight throughout the investigation. She also casts enough extras to keep readers guessing who could be behind these attacks…readers may find themselves wanting to reread this one." —Associated Press "[A] deliciously creepy tale of urban paranoia."—Ruth Ware, New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in Cabin 10 The author of the New York Times bestseller I Let You Go propels readers into a dark and claustrophobic thriller, in which a normal, everyday woman becomes trapped in the confines of her normal, everyday world... Every morning and evening, Zoe Walker takes the same route to the train station, waits at a certain place on the platform, finds her favorite spot in the car, never suspecting that someone is watching her... It all starts with a classified ad. During her commute home one night, while glancing through her local paper, Zoe sees her own face staring back at her; a grainy photo along with a phone number and a listing for a website called FindTheOne.com. Other women begin appearing in the same ad, a different one every day, and Zoe realizes they’ve become the victims of increasingly violent crimes—including murder. With the help of a determined cop, she uncovers the ad’s twisted purpose...A discovery that turns her paranoia into full-blown panic. Zoe is sure that someone close to her has set her up as the next target. And now that man on the train—the one smiling at Zoe from across the car—could be more than just a friendly stranger. He could be someone who has deliberately chosen her and is ready to make his next move…

Un nou thriller psicològic que et tindrà amb l''ai al cor fins al final. Imagina''t que un dia veus la teva pròpia foto a la secció de Contactes del diari. Quan arribes a casa, la teva família hi treu importància -diuen que tots tenim un doble-, però en el fons tu saps que ets la dona de la foto i que no podràs respirar tranquil·la fins que no descobreixis per què surts entre els anuncis de Contactes. Sents que t''observen... Que hi ha algú que ho sap tot de tu... Vols descobrir qui s''amaga sota les ombres. Però el que no saps és que pot ser l''enigma oculta un perill molt més obscur... La crítica ha dit... « Ho sé tot de tu consolida a Clare Mackintosh com una de les reines del thriller psicològic comercial, aquesta línia amb noms com Paula Hawkins o John Verdon.» Xavi Ayén, La Vanguardia «Clare Mackintosh és una de les noves revelacions de la novel·la negra anglosaxona. Aquesta dona, que va treballar de policia fins que l''any 2011 ho va deixar tot per dedicar-se a la literatura, acaba de publicar el seu segon llibre, Ho sé tot de tu, i arrenca amb un quart de milió d''exemplars venuts a Anglaterra i traduccions a trenta llengües.» Sebastià Benassar, Vilaweb « Ho sé tot de tu ha vingut a demostrar el talent de l''autora com a creadora d''històries de suspens, un thriller molt lligat a l''actualitat de les xarxes socials i el poder per no ocultar els nostres secrets.» Víctor Fernández, La Razón «Clare Mackintosh ha escrit un thriller impactat que se''t quedarà gravat al cervell durant un temps. Especialment la pròxima vegada que agafis el metro.» Víctor Blázquez, Crónicas Literarias «Sorprenent, original... i terriblement proper a una possible realitat.» The Times «Esgarrifant. Un thriller profundament pertorbador.» Heat «Una novel·la que tracta temes tan interessants, propers i de rabiosa actualitat com el robatori d''identitats i la inseguretat a les xarxes socials, l''amistat, la gelosia, l''enveja, la por, l''ansietat o la manera en que les víctimes de certs delictes s''enfronten a allò que els hi ha succeït.» Marina Córdoba, Mis Lecturas

Le nouveau thriller psychologique de Clare Mackintosh Le jour où Zoe Walker découvre son portrait dans les petites annonces d’un journal londonien, elle décide de mener sa propre enquête. L’image floue n’est accompagnée d’aucune explication, juste d’une adresse Internet et d’un numéro de téléphone. Pour les proches de Zoe, c’est la photo d’une femme qui lui ressemble vaguement, rien de plus. Mais le lendemain et le surlendemain, d’autres visages féminins figurent dans l’encart publicitaire. S’agit-il d’une erreur ? D’une coïncidence ? Ou quelqu’un surveille-t-il leurs moindres faits et gestes ? Te laisser partir, son premier roman, publié chez Marabout en février 2016, s’est classé parmi les meilleures ventes du Sunday Times et a été traduit en trente langues.

Pas cu pas, Jenna întrezărește o șansă la fericire în viitorul ei.

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER One of The New York Times Book Review’s 10 Best Crime Novels of 2016! The next blockbuster thriller for those who loved The Girl on the Train and Gone Girl...“a finely crafted novel with a killer twist.”(#1 New York Times bestselling author Paula Hawkins) On a rainy afternoon, a mother''s life is shattered as her son slips from her grip and runs into the street... I Let You Go follows Jenna Gray as she moves to a ramshackle cottage on the remote Welsh coast, trying to escape the memory of the car accident that plays again and again in her mind and desperate to heal from the loss of her child and the rest of her painful past. At the same time, the novel tracks the pair of Bristol police investigators trying to get to the bottom of this hit-and-run. As they chase down one hopeless lead after another, they find themselves as drawn to each other as they are to the frustrating, twist-filled case before them. Elizabeth Haynes, author of Into the Darkest Corner, says, “I read I Let You Go in two sittings; it made me cry (at least twice), made me gasp out loud (once), and above all made me wish I''d written it...a stellar achievement.”
