Never Saw it Coming (Paperback)
Linwood Barclay (author)- In stock
A chilling story of double-dealing, fraud and murder from the author of FIND YOU FIRST and NO TIME FOR GOODBYE, a No. 1 Richard & Judy Book Club bestseller
Keisha Ceylon is a psychic. So she says. The truth is, she watches the news for stories of missing family members, gives it a few days, then tells these families she's had a vision. She may be able to help. And by the way, she charges for this service, and likes to see the money up front.
Keisha's latest mark is a man whose wife disappeared a week ago. She's seen him on TV, pleading for his wife to come home, or for whoever took her to let her go. So she pays him a visit.
The trouble is, her vision just happens to be close enough to the truth that it leaves the man rattled. And it may very well leave Keisha dead . . .
NEVER SAW IT COMING is based on the novella CLOUDED VISION, which was published as part of the Quick Reads programme in 2011.

An amusing tale of a fake psychic who finds herself in jeopardy when she realises the husband she is 'helping' may have killed his missing wife. A page-turner par excellence. * SUNDAY TELEGRAPH *
A devilishly clever, tightly plotted thriller, this grips from the first pages to the superb whip-smart conclusion * SUNDAY MIRROR *

Just read never saw it coming by Linwood Barclay. Love his books. Great twist at the end. Shame I had read the plot already in clouded vision. (Previous quick read book)
