Instead she returns to her home in Switzerland to heal amongst her family and prepare for the birth of her baby. She meets Scott, a handsome man who offers her love, security and all she and her new baby could possibly wish for. She thinks she’s finally home safe... but her nightmare is just beginning. A page-turning psychological suspense with a travel adventure thread<br/><br/>For fans of the Netflix series YOU<br/><br/>FINALIST in the PAGETURNER AWARDS PRAISE FOR "THE BEATEN TRACK"<br/><br/>"I enjoyed this.

If you loved Before I Go to Sleep, if you enjoy contemporary paranoia classics like Sleeping with the Enemy or Run, then get on track." - AJ Finn, author of The Woman in the Window<br/>"The reader watches, fascinated and repelled, as Sandrine makes her way around the world on a trip of a lifetime. Louise Mangos hooks us, then reels us in expertly towards an ending which we both dread and turn the pages furiously to reach. Great stuff." - Michael Ridpath, author of The Diplomat's Wife.<br/>"With The Beaten Trac
