What you need to know before your trail

It seems like an ordinary Wednesday, until the phone rings. A mysterious caller with a chilling threat. Journalist Alice Henderson hangs up, ready to dismiss it as a hoax against the newspaper. But the next Wednesday, the stalker makes another move—and it becomes clear that this is all about Alice.

Someone wants her to suffer, but for what? Her articles have made her a popular local champion—could it be her past rather than her work that’s put her life in danger? Alice is determined not to give in to fear, but with the police investigation at a dead end, her boyfriend insists on hiring private investigator Matthew Hill.

With every passing Wednesday the warnings escalate, until it’s not only Alice but also her family in the stalker’s sights. As her tormentor closes in, can Alice uncover what she’s being punished for before the terrifying threats become an unthinkable reality?

The novel is loosely based in Devon in and around South Devon, Plymouth and Ivybridge. Most of the novel takes place in and around a fictional newsroom, inside the main character’s head and the fear she has off the messages someone is sending her.

Teresa Driscoll was a journalist for more than 25 years and this story was apparently inspired by her own experiences when as she was just starting out, she would receive a threatening call on the same day each week. This lasted for three weeks before the caller apologised and the matter was resolved. Years later, this would provide a crime writer with a very intriguing plot…
