ReviewsSomeone is watching you, but no one is there. Charlotte Link plays on that primal fear in her psychological suspense story, The Watcher. The cool precision of Link's narrative voice makes it clear why this kind of adulation is so chilling., After reading only a few pages, it is easy to see why she is the most successful female crime author in her home country. This phenomenal, multilayered mystery offers plenty of psychological intrigue and suspense. Fans of psychological thrillers and dark mysteries will love this engrossing novel., Link switches so deftly among her different characters' viewpoints that the web she weaves is tinged by an exceptionally powerful sense of miasmal paranoia., Most readers would never guess that this gripping psychological thriller was the work of a best-selling German novelist. Link's English-language debut is a dark, disturbing novel of suspense on par with Minette Walters. Link builds a sense of menace in these chapters that makes the reader dread turning the page but keeps you up all night doing just that., Link has sold some 15 million books in Germany alone, and if The Watcher is any indication, she is poised for the bestseller list on this side of the pond as well.

SynopsisA "tautly plotted psychological thriller" (Publishers Weekly, starred review) from Germany's most successful female author., Carla Roberts lives alone in the top of a highrise building, frightened by the sound of the lift stopping and opening on her floor, with nobody getting out. Days later, she's found brutally murdered. Meanwhile Samson Segal, an unemployed thirty-something, has taken to spying on his neighbours, particularly beautiful and successful Gillian Ward. When Gillian's daughter comes home to an empty, locked house, Samson takes her in but finds himself venting his anger in his diary when his good Samaritan actions go unappreciated, unaware that his suspicious sister-in-law cracked his password long ago. When Gillian's husband is then murdered in his own home, Samson comes under intense scrutiny but the only man making any progress on the case is the one who shouldn't be working on it. Yet he's the only one who believes Samson is innocent..., Carla Roberts lives alone in the top of a high rise building, frightened by the sound of the lift stopping and opening on her floor, with nobody getting out.
