The Engagement

“A tasty gothic tale, with echoes of Bluebeard and Psycho, about wealth, power and erotic fantasy.”  

The Sunday Times

This gripping, provocative new novel by one of Australia's finest writers is a psychological thriller for the modern age.

Two people. How many lies?

A woman and a man drive at dusk to a rural mansion for a final weekend together. It's all been a game. Both players understood the rules. Or so the woman thinks. At the house, a new game begins. A trap has been set. But how and why? And for whom?

Reviews
