About this ebook
What would you do if you witnessed a murder - but no one believed you . . .?
Another masterful suspense novel from the bestselling author of the Richard & Judy summer read winner, NO TIME FOR GOODBYE and FIND YOU FIRST
Map-obsessed Thomas spends his days and nights on a virtual tour of the world through his computer screen, believing he must store the details of every town and city in his head. Then one day, while surfing a street view program, he sees something that shouldn't be there: a woman being murdered behind a window on a New York street.
When Thomas tells his brother Ray what he has witnessed, Ray humours him with a half-hearted investigation - until he realises Thomas may have stumbled onto a deadly conspiracy, which puts them both in danger . . .
With enough suspense to rival a Hitchcock film, this is a thriller with edge.

Loved all his books so far, and this is one of his best. My only criticism would be the awkward product placement, where Safari is used rather than the genetic "web browser", but the writer at the same time awkwardly avoids using "street view" term.

This is my first novel by Lynwood Barclay and was pleasantly surprised.... good development and definitely not too fast paced. And using modern 'First World' possibilities with Google Earth-like tech in plot. Nice. Would recommend

It's definitely a slow boiler but as usual LB shocks at the end. Go for it
, you wouldn't be disappointed.
