About The Book
Meet the roommates from hell
On her first shift at a halfway house for violent offenders in Edinburgh - the only job she could get - rebounding Australian expat Lou is taken hostage. For nine long hours, the only people who can help her are the residents. But who can Lou trust? The mum-and-dad-killer, the elderly legless rockstar paedophile, the stammering suicide chat room guy, or the Armani-suited conman?
Slick, darkly funny and nerve-janglingly tense, Halfway House is a breathtaking thriller and an unapologetic reminder: never corner a desperate woman.
A genius combination of horror, humour and humanity - Ber Carroll
