Quite simply, one of the most shocking books of our time. This novel explores the fundamental contradiction between true, pure love and dark, desperate lust, the feigned simplicity of fate's malicious whims and the awful perfection of occasionally being in the Wrong Place at the Wrong Time... Sucked into believing his own dark fantasies, Dave Grimshaw embarks upon a journey that unleashes a terrifying truth from within, giving wings to pent up desires and misguided convictions. Jessica Balans' life appears to be perfect from the outside, but who can ever say what goes on behind closed doors? Life for her and her young family takes an unexpected twist as she descends into the web of lies and deceit her new 'pure' love has spun. A riveting read to the final explosive climax, this book will haunt you for a long time to come.
Born as the son of a highly successful entrepreneur, Matthew (Mat) Jackson was educated at Felsted, graduating in 1979, with a view to studying languages at Cambridge.
He decided instead to develop his love of business and joined the family business at the age of 16.
Nearly 30 years later, his life experience has been rich and diverse, including trading foreign currency since aged 17, importing goods from China, setting up a textile manufacturing facility in India, home educating his three children, building his own house, buying and selling real estate internationally, developing revolutionary new apps, and developing an Eco resort in the Caribbean.
I first found this book on Authonomy last year; loved it then, loved it even more now! Some excellent writing and character development are only part of what makes this book great. Stellar plot and brilliant story telling rounds out my entire opinion. Get hold of this book if you already haven't!
