Why read it?

1 author picked The Seduction as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

When I first read this book, its mastery of suspense blew me away. To escape painful memories of a lost life, Lee Montana takes refuge at her sister Rosie’s farm. There, she begins receiving unnerving gifts from a faceless stranger.

Told in alternating present-tense scenes as Lee and Rosie await the final confrontation and past-tense scenes that lead up to that moment, the story kept me on the edge of my seat almost from the get-go. I’ve sometimes recommended this book to writers who want to learn the craft of suspense.
