Already optioned for film, The Girl with a Clock for a Heart is Peter Swanson?s electrifying tale of romantic noir, with shades of Hitchcock and reminiscent of the classic movie Body Heat. It is the story of a man swept into a vortex of irresistible passion and murder when an old love mysteriously reappears.
On an ordinary Friday evening at his favorite Boston tavern, George Foss?s comfortable, predictable life is shattered when a beautiful woman sits down at the bar, a woman who vanished without a trace twenty years ago.
Liana Dector isn?t just an ex-girlfriend, the first love George couldn?t quite forget. She?s also a dangerous enigma and quite possibly a cold-blooded killer wanted by the police. Suddenly, she?s back?and she needs George?s help. Ruthless men believe she stole some money . . . and they will do whatever it takes to get it back.
George knows Liana is trouble. But he can?t say no?he never could?so he makes a choice that will plunge him into a terrifying whirlpool of lies, secrets, betrayal, and murder from which there is no sure escape.
Bold and masterful, full of malicious foreboding and subtle surprises, The Girl with a Clock for a Heart is an addictive, nonstop thriller?an ever-tightening coil of suspense that grips you right up to its electrifying end.
