Never Turn Your Back On A Stranger

What of the shadowy moments? That murky action felt and followed through. Looking into the mirror we don't recognise who is staring back. It is you, and it is not you. How can that be?

Sarah Montrose has an identity issue; she's conflicted, tired and under her own pressure. Out on the town, she meets the philosophical, smooth-talking, Lewis Blake. Handsome, captivating and unbeknown to Sarah, the bait in a sick and twisted game conjured up with his low-life-rich-kid housemate, Kenneth.

When the two men’s sexual game backfires, with wild abandon, Sarah is forced into an unlikely and bloodied alliance with a shapeshifter. Her fragile psyche, threatened by a monster, she calls on all her strength and cunning to go into battle with a psychopath and her own inner demon.
