Current format, Book, 2005, Random House trade pbk. ed, No Longer Available. Offered in 0 more formatsElizabeth is a modern woman. Smart. Independent. As sexual as she wants to be–with whomever she wants to be. But a breakup with her academic boyfriend has hit her harder than she cares to admit. And while her latest gig, translating a glitzy Czech thriller into English, offends her literary sensibilities, it arouses others with its steamy scenes of eroticism, violence, submission, and dominance.
Then, when her favorite Van Morrison CD disappears from its rack and her house is inexplicably violated, Elizabeth is afraid she’s starting to lose it–she even consults a local vicar about the possibility of poltergeists.
But what this woman in the lovely Victorian is experiencing is not supernatural. Nor is it madness. For in the dead of night, she will suddenly come face-to-face with her tormentor. She will smell him, she will touch him, and she will make a choice. Then the real haunting will begin.
After a nasty breakup with her boyfriend Tom, Lizzie Skorvecky, alone in her London home, plunges into her work of translating a Czech detective novel into English, only to have the violence and brutality of the novel appear in her own life. Reprint. 25,000 first printing.
