Publisher's Synopsis
My friends think my life's perfect, just so perfect. I'm young, beautiful and rich. Carla Miller has it all.
They don't know I have a deep, dark secret, something I'm running away from, desperate to hide. But somebody knows.
A week ago, I was about to make it big. I was up for a life-changing promotion and an eye-watering bonus. I was going to the top.
But everything changed. I investigated fraud and the death of my friend and mentor. I was warned not to - I would be swimming with big nasty political sharks - but I did it anyway. Me and my sassy assistant, Max, started to dig about. Big mistake!
It started small at first. That sense someone was watching and those faint scratching sounds. Now, I'm going crazy - my shadowy past coming back to haunt me. I need to run away - everything's closing in. I don't know who to trust.
I'm beginning to find out who's behind it all, but it's too late. The game's already about to end, and I'm trapped like a rat. Checkmate!
