Why a Booktrail?
2000s: All you’ve done is taken in a parcel for a neighbour. You have no idea what you’ve let into your home.
The Package
What you need to know before your trail
Emma’s the one that got away. The only survivor of a killer known in the tabloids as ‘the barber’ – because of the trophies he takes from his victims.
Or she thinks she was.
The police aren’t convinced. Nor is her husband. She never even saw her tormentor properly, but now she recognises him in every man. Questioning her sanity, she gives up her job as a doctor in the local hospital and retreats from the world. It is better to stay at home. Quiet. Anonymous. Safe. He won’t find her here.
And all she did was take a parcel for a neighbour.
She has no idea what she’s let into her home.

Don’t be taking in packages in Berlin!
There are many posh hotels in Berlin but the main one in the novel doesn’t exist for obvious reasons. A woman is attacked in a room that doesn’t exist in that hotel…….something is very weird…
The city of Berlin is a backdrop to the novel rather than being a major part of the novel. Most of the story takes place in the hotel or around the area where Emma lives.
Other, real, hotels are mentioned but only vaguely given the subject of the novel.
