Publisher Description
The past lives of two London strangers converge in this “addictive, ironic and darkly suspenseful combination of mystery and romance” (Kirkus Reviews).
It’s been ten years since Kate Fullerton survived a suspicious car accident in Ecuador that took the lives of her father, stepmother, and younger sister. Haunted by the tragedy, and with her inheritance lost to a con artist husband, Kate’s been adrift ever since. She only begins to feel on solid ground again when she secures a job at a travel agency and agrees to share a comfortable apartment with her accommodating new boss. If only she could shake the feeling that she’s being followed.
Then, a decomposed body is found floating in a nearby canal. And a handsome amateur detective solicits her help in booking passage for a vacation getaway—in South America. Kate may have thought she was pulling her life together. Instead, it’s her past that’s slowly coming into focus. For Kate, that’s a very dangerous thing.
Loose Ends “is Moody at her best. An outstanding psychological thriller” about the secrets that bind us, and those that can kill (Booklist).
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Moody (Dancing in the Dark) packs this flimsy story with improbabilities, and making the characters comment "This is all too much of a coincidence" doesn't fool the readers into ignoring the author's clumsy engineering. Kate Lennox survived a car wreck in Ecuador that killed her dad, his assistant, and her stepmother and stepsister. She can't remember much of that day or how the accident occurred, and it haunts her. Years later, she's in England, trying to work through a recent divorce, find a job that will get her away from a man she thinks is stalking her, and get a place of her own; but each achievement connects her anew to that awful day in Ecuador. Moody's stream-of-consciousness style bogs down with six different viewpoint characters, and her usual tight plotting has gone AWOL, leaving numerous threads unresolved.
