Rebecca Ballard just wants a break. As she struggles to balance life as a new mother with her attempts to put some magic back into her marriage, she sets off on a trip to fetch a few papers from the office. But will she ever make it home? After breaking down on a desolate stretch of road, Rebecca is immediately wary when a man named Ted Armitage stops and offers to help. Having already fixed the problem herself, Rebecca gets going again, but Ted isn't a man who takes rejection well and he's soon on her trail. Before she knows what has hit her, Rebecca finds herself dragged away to a remote farm. And she's not the first woman who's ended up in Ted's clutches. Trapped in a desperate race to survive, Rebecca begins to discover the true depths of Ted's madness. Although he tells her that her fate is in her own hands, and that she has a genuine chance to eventually walk away, Rebecca knows that she's going to have to take matters into her own hands. But just how much does Ted know about the land around his farm? And what's causing the strange noises that disturb his house at night? Rebecca quickly comes to realize that she might not be the only one in danger. Twist Valley is the second book in the Ted Armitage trilogy, about a man whose murderous activities in rural England have somehow gone undetected for years.
