Sanctuary - Paperback

by Garry Disher (Author)

A thief finds she cannot outrun her past in this standalone thriller from one of Australia's most esteemed crime authors.

Grace is a thief--a good one. She was taught by experts and she's been practising since she was a kid, specializing in small, high-value items like stamps and watches. But it's a solitary life, always watchful, always moving. It's not the life she wants.

Then a run-in with an old associate forces her to lie low in a small rural town, where she happens across an antiques shop. The owner Erin is timid but friendly, and has a room to rent. And Grace glimpses a different life, and perhaps a home.

But there are dangerous men watching her, and Grace should know better than to let her guard slip. Because no matter how far she runs, her past is always just a few steps behind. . .
