The Collector

Nora Roberts brings us a romance wrapped up in a thriller that would equally be at home under her nom de plume JD Robb.

Lila Emerson is a professional house-sitter and a successful young adult author.

As part of her daily routine Lila, with her binoculars for company, takes in a spot of people-watching. She begins to watch a soap opera lifestyle unfold in the apartment block opposite.

One day a heated relationship appears to go a step too far when she sees a young model-type woman plummet to her death from her window.

Lila reports this to the police, and puts her own life in jeopardy.

While giving her witness statement, Lila meets Ash, the brother of a second victim.

She finds herself part of a larger mystery. What were they protecting? Why has the killer now set their eyes on her?

As Ash and Lila grow reliant on each other, can they solve the mystery?

Marrying romance and a proper feel of danger, The Collector keeps you guessing all the way.
