The classified ad — what it means; who is watching Zoe; the connection to the attacks on women; the commuter setting
What this book is about
London commuter Zoe Walker spots her own photo — blurry but unmistakably her — in a classified ad in the evening paper. The ad isn't for anything obvious. No one will take her seriously at first. Detective Kelly Swift, investigating a series of attacks on women on the London transport system, begins to connect the dots. I See You is Clare Mackintosh's second novel — a London commuter thriller built on the specific dread of being watched in public.
