Thriller

The must-read gripping new suspense thriller novel from Gabriel Bergmoser. The best-selling author of 'The Hitchhiker' and 'The Hunted' returns with a suspenseful new standalone thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat. An isolated, empty ski resort in the off-season. A woman who doesn't want to be found. A man who may not be who he appears to be. It's a game of cat and mouse - with deadly consequences. On the run from a controlling husband and his underworld associates in Melbourne, Charlotte has adopted a new identity and found a job as an off-season caretaker in a tiny, deserted Alpine resort. Some dangerous people are looking for Charlotte and so she's lying low, tending to the lodges, safe in her solitude, but jumping every time a floor creaks or the wind whistles through the empty corridors of the deserted lodges. She's trying to convince herself she's safe, that she got away. But then strange things start happening around the resort. And Charlotte starts to realise that every escape route she has is being sealed, off one by one. From the master of propulsive, page-turning storytelling, Gabriel Bergmoser, The Caretaker will have readers second-guessing themselves at every turn. What's real and what isn't? Who's dangerous and who isn't? And who will survive? A menacing, nailbiting cat and mouse psychological thriller. PRAISE FOR THE INHERITANCE 'A heroine you can't look away from, pure thrills and wallop, wilder and gamier than your average Aussie noir, this is fierce storytelling.' Kyle Perry, bestselling author of The Bluffs 'The Inheritance captures the pedal-to-the-metal pace and thrills of Bergmoser's first book, but adds a more substantial plot and richer characters. The story unfolds quickly, and it swiftly builds to an explosive climax. A ferocious tale.' Canberra Weekly PRAISE FOR THE HUNTED 'This slice of outback noir is ... at once exhilarating, gleefully vicious and totally race-to-the-finish-line unputdownable.' The Observer 'An audacious walk on the wildest side of outback noir ... a vivid thriller.' Sydney Morning Herald 'A perfectly paced, thrilling read with an unrelenting sense of dread and menace ' Books+Publishing
