Delphine de Vigan - Based on a True Story (Omnibus)

Delphine has writer's block and then meets L. Thriller about an obsessive female friendship. With Janie Dee and Tara Fitzgerald.

A psychological thriller about an obsessive female friendship. Delphine is suffering from crippling writer's block when she meets L.

Delphine's writer's block is a result of the double-edged response to her last book. As her crisis progresses, Delphine encounters the enigmatic L at a party. L is intimately familiar with Delphine's work; an admirer who quickly insinuates herself into Delphine's life.

Delphine realises that L's insistent desire to get her working again may not be as benevolent as it appears.

The idea threading through the plot and feeding the final revelations is who has the power - or the right - to tell someone else's story.
