About the book

A compulsive, disturbingly relevant, twisty and powerful psychological, social-media thriller from the bestselling author of The Black Path

An intense, tightly calibrated thriller Huffington Post

Tom is a successful author, but hes struggling to finish his novel. His main distraction is an online admirer, Evie, who simply wont leave him alone.
Evie is smart, well read and unstable; she lives with her father and her social-media friendships are not only her escape, but everything she has.

When shes hit with a restraining order, her world is turned upside down, and Tom is free to live his life again, to concentrate on writing.

But things arent really adding up. For Tom is distracted but also addicted to his online relationships, and when they take a darker, more menacing turn, he feels powerless to change things. Because maybe he needs Evie more than hes letting on.

A compulsive, disturbingly relevant, twisty and powerful psychological thriller, The Closer I Get is also a searing commentary on the fragility and insincerity of online relationships, and the danger that can lurk just one like away
