An isolated, empty ski resort in the off-season. A woman who doesnt want to be found. A man who may not be who he appears to be. Its a game of cat and mouse - with deadly consequences. On the run from a controlling husband and his underworld associates in Melbourne, Charlotte has adopted a new identity and found a job as an off-season caretaker in a tiny, deserted Alpine resort. Some dangerous people are looking for Charlotte and so shes lying low, tending to the lodges, safe in her solitude, but jumping every time a floor creaks or the wind whistles through the empty corridors of the deserted lodges. Shes trying to convince herself shes safe, that she got away. But then strange things start happening around the resort. And Charlotte starts to realise that every escape route she has is being sealed, off one by one. From the master of propulsive, page-turning storytelling, Gabriel Bergmoser, The Caretaker will have readers second-guessing themselves at every turn. Whats real and what isnt Whos dangerous and who isnt And who will survive A menacing, nailbiting cat and mouse psychological thriller. PRAISE FOR THE INHERITANCE A heroine you cant look away from, pure thrills and wallop, wilder and gamier than your average Aussie noir, this is fierce storytelling. Kyle Perry, bestselling author of The Bluffs The Inheritance captures the pedal-to-the-metal pace and thrills of Bergmosers first book, but adds a more substantial plot and richer characters. The story unfolds quickly, and it swiftly builds to an explosive climax. A ferocious tale.
