Around The Bend
Jessica Clemens has everything she's supposed to want: the house on the hill, the husband, the children, the money, the white picket fence.
Then a car accident nearly kills her.
Months later, Jessica is back home, back on her feet, and telling everyone she's fine.
Jessica is very convincing.
Not everyone believes her.
Enter Myles Ingram.
Former Navy SEAL. Caretaker. Professional problem solver.
Myles has been hired to get Jessica back on track, and he has a system for doing it.
Rules. Goals. Contracts.
Jessica signs them.
Following them is another matter.
Myles doesn't simply listen to what Jessica says. He watches what she does. Which makes him increasingly difficult to fool-and increasingly difficult for Jessica to stay away from.
That's inconvenient.
Because Jessica is hiding something.
And the man she's beginning to want is also the one man whose job is to notice it.
Then there's the accident.
Jessica has a story about what happened that night, too.
It's a very good one.
Around the Bend is a dark domestic thriller about control, desire, an unreliable narrator, and a dangerously intimate caretaker relationship where the truth is the one thing nobody can afford to get too close to.
