'An addictive deep-dive into the dark, throbbing heart of obsessive desire. Baby Reindeer meets Convenience Store Woman' KIRSTY LOGAN, author of Now She Is Witch 'One of the best books I've read in a long time. It was addictive, unsettling, and propulsive, I was hooked after the first page' CHLOE MICHELLE HOWARTH, author of Sunburn Alice has been cleaning Tom's flat every Wednesday for a year. With every smudge wiped from his coffee cup, every crease smoothed out in his bed, every multivitamin counted from the jar, Alice spirals deeper into infatuation.
