Betrayal Sharon Brownlie 1. utgave

Helen King?s childhood was marred by physical abuse and rejection. At the age of fourteen she finds herself in the clutches of a pimp in Gloucester and he lures her into a life of drugs and prostitution. She uses her drug addiction as a way to blank out the memories and enables her to hide the psychological scarring caused by those that she felt had abandoned her. Her life was spiralling out of control. Helen?s decision to quit her addiction comes at a time when she has a chance encounter with an old school teacher. This opens up old wounds that had remained hidden and festering deep within her. It also leads to her decision that it is time for payback for all those that she felt had betrayed her. Helen, bitter and twisted, heads to Edinburgh to begin her killing spree. She wants her victims to suffer for their betrayal, she wants payback. When the first body is found the police are mystified. When a second body turns up they quickly realise that it is the same killer. They face a race against time to find the connection and the killer.
