THE LAST REFUGE

Lights, camera, action ... who wrote murder into Hannah's script?

Has Hannah Ives made the right decision joining the cast of Patriot House, 1774, a reality show recreating eighteen-century colonial life? There’s no electricity, no running water, and the cast are at the mercy of the show’s ‘Founding Father.’ Even more worrying, Amy Cornell, Hannah’s lady’s maid on set, receives a text message from Drew, her Navy SEAL husband presumed dead after a botched mission ten months ago.

But while Amy dismisses it as a hoax, she hasn’t bargained on Drew turning up at Patriot House, carefully avoiding the cameras and scaring Hannah to death. He has a sinister plan – and he’s not going anywhere without Amy. When dancing master Alex Mueller, Amy’s new flame, is discovered dead, Hannah must think quickly if she is to trap a dangerous killer determined not to let anything, or anyone, stand in his way . . .
