After the light and dizzying journey in “The Hundred Ways to Escape,” Irina Leyk leads the reader into a new, gripping novel without slowing down: this time, we’re in for a dynamic psychological thriller in which auto-fiction suddenly turns into a tangled story of mysteries, unexpected twists, and a dark shadow that has been chasing the heroine since childhood—never letting her breathe, never letting her be happy, and always proving stronger. It seems there’s no way out? But not in this story, where the author won’t let you get stuck in endless pain—where even in the most impenetrable darkness there will be a drop of light, and behind the frightening, haunting shadow there will be someone who has always been holding out a hand, preventing her from falling.
This is a story about the terrible monsters inside us—capable of becoming support and protection—and about the closest people, who may turn out to be real monsters, capable of anything. This book is a psychological thriller for lovers of tangled plots. This book is silent embraces for those who know what people with an invisible scar feel like,” — Irina Leyk.
