Intermission
by Graham Hurley

Two invisible enemies. A life hanging in the balance.

The world is struggling in the face of a relentless virus. When Hayden Prentice develops symptoms during a stay in his native Portsmouth, Enora Andressen and her son Malo must do their best to save his life. Because H, already in deep financial jeopardy, trusts no one. Except his kith and kin.

But survival comes at a savage price. Not just the fortune that Enora must somehow raise to pay for his home nursing, but the murderous attentions of a stalker from H’s past, determined to pay him one last visit and exact vengeance for a long-ago debt of blood . . .
