Summary of the book:
Another cleverly written book by this author.
Meet Beth, whose friend persuades her to go speed dating. This is where she
meets Marc. But is all as it seems? And is an offer of help really the best
help Beth could accept? Lots of intrigue, manipulative behaviour and psychological
games. What else could you expect from this author?

Description by Author:
Leverage is testament to how one innocuous ad
in the local paper can turn your world upside down.
Two people come into Beth’s life. ONE gives
her a reason to die. THE OTHER gives her no other option.
She appears out of nowhere and wants to be
Beth’s friend. It would be sweet if it wasn’t so damned creepy.
Beth can’t shake her. She won’t take no for an
answer and Beth’s gentle life becomes a vortex that she can’t control.
Black’s trademark knack of delving into the
psyche and finding the pockets of humanity that nobody wants to admit to have
never been more in evidence than in Leverage. In this book, she bypasses black
and goes to whatever black becomes when it gets darker.
This is a story about power - how much
influence can one person have over somebody else?
Be Beth’s friend and find out.
