'I just loved it - it truly wedged itself into my brain. Absolutely vile and brilliant.
Plaything is an unhinged melody and it will serenade fans of the darkest narratives.' ALICE
SLATER author of Death of a Bookseller 'A gloriously tense tale of obsession' Financial
Times Anna is smart. Smarter than you probably. But when she falls for the beautiful
enigmatic Caden her need to get under his skin to truly know him becomes overpowering.
Anna's new life in Cambridge is full of promise - she's the top student in her PhD cohort she
has great friends and she has met an exhaustingly attractive man - but something is a little
off. Perhaps it's the routine violence of her lab work with animals or maybe it's something to
do with her boyfriend's icy reserve but it seems there is a kind of menace hiding beneath the
Cambridge dream. When Anna and Caden's lives become tightly entangled her obsession with
Caden's seemingly ever-present ex-girlfriend reaches a dangerous pitch... Just how far will she
go to satiate her curiosity? ------------------- FROM THE REVIEWS FOR BEA SETTON'S BERLIN
