“Disclaimer is something special. . . an outstandingly clever and twisty tale that's been perfectly engineered to make heads spin.” - Janet Maslin, New York Times

A brilliantly conceived, deeply unsettling psychological thriller about a woman haunted by secrets, the consuming desire for revenge, and the terrible price we pay when we try to hide the truth.

Imagine if the next thriller you read was all about you.

When a mysterious novel appears at documentary filmmaker Catherine Ravenscroft's bedside, she is curious. She has no idea who might have sent her The Perfect Stranger-or how it ended up on her nightstand. At first, she is intrigued by the suspenseful story that unfolds. And then she realizes this isn't fiction. The Perfect Stranger re-creates in vivid, unmistakable detail the day Catherine became hostage to a dark secret, a secret that only one other person knew-and that person is dead.

Now that the past Catherine so desperately wants to forget is catching up with her, her world is falling apart. Plunged into a living nightmare, her only hope is to confront what really happened on that awful day . . . even if the shocking truth might destroy her.

Editorial Reviews

JUNE 2015 - AudioFile

Imagine opening a book of fiction and discovering that it’s about you—and a secret you thought you’d kept to yourself for years. Renée Knight's deeply disturbing psychological thriller is expertly narrated by Michael Pennington and Laura Paton. Both narrators, particularly Pennington, begin with understated performances that may provide a barrier to some listeners. However, their performances soon ramp up in a way that matches the story itself as layers upon layers of complexity and deception are revealed. The narration moves quickly from somewhat unengaging to utterly consuming. By that time, listeners will regret anything that takes them away from the story. J.L.K. © AudioFile 2015, Portland, Maine
