The river house - Margaret Leroy

With you I'm in a different world, what happens in our world can't harm anyone else.

Ginnie Holmes has found something she never intended to find - an overwhelming passion for a man she should not be with. At an abandoned boathouse hidden on the riverbank of the Thames, Ginnie steps into a world that's just a little bit brighter that her ordinary life. An escape from the crush of an empty marriage and a drifting life.

A terrifying event means the lovers' secret becomes a deadly catastrophe. A woman is found murdered at the river's edge, just near the river house. And Ginnie finds herself in the path of extraordinary danger, not only facing the exposure and grief that she has feared, but endangering herself and everyone she loves.
