Bodily Harm
From the international bestselling author of The Handmaid's Tale
A clever and addictive thriller from the bestselling author of The Handmaid's Tale and The Testaments.
Rennie Wilford is a young journalist running from her life. When she takes an assignment to a Caribbean island, she tumbles into a world where no one is quite what they seem, least of all 'Yankee' Paul.
Is Paul a drug smuggler? A CIA operative? Either way, he's trouble, and his offer to Rennie of a no-hooks, no-strings affair suddenly draws her into a lethal web of corruption.
'As swift-moving as the best thriller, clipped and laconic, yet deeply and richly sensitive' β Sunday Telegraph
