Excerpt

Lisa Higgins is an average twentysomething looking for love in all the wrong places. To Lisa, a two-week holiday in India seems like just the ticket to coax her out of her comfort zone and help her find her true self.

After touching down in the party capital of Goa, Lisa is swept away by the marriage of the East and West—a mix that appears to work perfectly in the food, the culture, and most importantly, the people. She is quickly accepted into a close-knit friendship circle and introduced to a man who proves to be Mr Right. He promises her the world, but it is not long before she is drawn into something dark and sinister that strips from her the beauty of a fun adventure.

When the police come knocking on her door, she pleads ignorance, but just how much does she already know?
