Keep You Close by Karen Cleveland #Book Spotlight #Giveaway


Today I am delighted to bring you the opportunity to win a copy of bestselling author, Karen Cleveland's thriller, Keep You Close. Details on how to enter are at the foot of this post.  

If you enjoy a thriller full of twists and turns, I am sure you will love this one which is published by Bantam Press on 27th June 2019.  First, here's a little about the book. 

A strange sensation runs through me, a feeling that I don't know this person in front of me, even though he matters more to me than anyone ever has, than anyone ever will.

You go into your son's bedroom. It's the usual mess. You tidy up some dirty plates, pick up some clothes, open the wardrobe to put them away.


And that's when you find it. Something so shocking it doesn't seem real.


And you realize a horrifying truth...


Your own son might be dangerous…


Karen Cleveland brings her trademark themes of domesticity and deceit to bear in this gripping new stand-alone thriller that will make you question how much you really know about the child you raised.



Keep You Close is the heart-pounding, twisty follow up to Need to Know, one of 2018’s biggest thriller debuts. Need to Know was purchased by Transworld in a whirlwind 24-hour auction, with rights sold in 22 territories and Charlize Theron set to produce and star in the upcoming film. The book received critical acclaim and was a Simon Mayo Book Club pick.
