About this ebook

From the bestselling author of It's Always the Husband comes a novel about a love triangle that begins on a fateful night...

‘Rides its rising tide of terror to a finale that blanched my knuckles. An exceptionally suspenseful thriller’ – A J Finn, Sunday Times No. 1 bestselling author of The Woman in the Window

There is a stranger outside Caroline's house.

Her spectacular new beach house, built for hosting expensive parties and vacationing with the family she thought she'd have. But her husband is lying to her and everything in her life is upside down, so when the stranger, Aidan, shows up as a bartender at the same party where Caroline and her husband have a very public fight, it doesn't seem like anything out of the ordinary.

As her marriage collapses around her and the lavish lifestyle she's built for herself starts to crumble, Caroline turns to Aidan for comfort... and revenge. After a brief and desperate fling that means nothing to Caroline and everything to him, Aidan's obsession with Caroline, her family, and her house grows more and more disturbing. And when Caroline's husband goes missing, her life descends into a nightmare that leaves her accused of her own husband's murder.

A Stranger on the Beach is Strangers on a Train meets Fatal Attraction in Michele Campbell's edge-of your-seat story of passion and intrigue.

I have just finished reading this book and have thoroughly enjoyed it. The book is filled with twists and turns, one minute I thought that I knew what was going to happen and the next I had no idea. It is a very clever book written with Caroline and Aiden at the heart of the story, Caroline's marriage is breaking down, she keeps seeing a stranger staring up at her house and her Daughter has a distant relationship with her. When things seem that they can't possibly get much worse for Caroline, she meets a much younger man, a barman at the local pub, they have a one night stand - or that is what Caroline thinks it is anyway! Aiden becomes completely obsessed with Caroline and believes that he is protecting her, Caroline is afraid that Aiden is going to harm her or her family, she doesn't know who to tell, if she tells her family, the affair is made public and any hopes of reconciling with her Husband will be over, if she goes to the police she is up against closed ranks as Aidan's brother is the chief of police. A fast paced, must read for anyone who enjoys a good thriller.
