Publisher's Summary
Shelter is the new suspense thriller from award-winning author Catherine Jinks.
Meg lives alone - a little place in the bush outside town. A perfect place to hide. That’s one of the reasons she offers to shelter Nerine, who’s escaping a violent ex. The other is that Meg knows what it’s like to live with an abusive partner.
Nerine is jumpy, and her two little girls are frightened. It tells Meg all she needs to know where they’ve come from, and she’s not all that surprised when Nerine asks her to get hold of a gun. But she knows it’s unnecessary. They’re safe now.
Then she starts to wonder about some little things. A disturbed flyscreen. A tune playing on her windchimes. Has Nerine’s ex tracked them down? Has Meg’s husband turned up to torment her some more?
By the time she finds out, it’ll be too late to do anything but run for her life.
What the critics say
"Jinks knows how to dole out the tension, letting the suspense slacken and then ramping up the terror." (Guardian)
"Shelter is a propulsive thriller that is also distinctive in its plot, vision and style.... Masterfully developed." (Australian Book Review)
