LONGLISTED FOR THE MAN BOOKER PRIZE The latest from award-winning crime writer Belinda Bauer, winner of the UK National Book Award, and longlisted for the Man Booker Prize, Snap is a gripping novel about a teenage boys hunt for his mothers killer.
Eileen Bright puts her 11-year-old son Jack in charge when she left their broken-down car on the side of the road to find help.
But she never comes back, and three years later, Jacks still in charge: of his sisters, of making ends meet, of making sure nobody knows theyre all alone in the house, and--quite suddenly--of finding out who murdered his mother.
Meanwhile, a young woman named Catherine While wakes to find a knife beside her bed, and a note reading I could have killed you.
With a husband on the road and a baby on the way, Catherine makes a single bad choice that leads her into a tangled web of deception and danger.
A stylish, masterfully written novel that will have readers on the edge of their seats, Snap is Belinda Bauer at the height of her powers.
