Gabriel Shaw has a photographic memory.
But not much else.
Working as a security guard in an exclusive residential complex, he's resigned himself to the fact that his unique talent has proved to be worthless.
Until a Mr Silk approaches him with a proposition.
One of the oldest, reclusive residents of the complex has a secret and Gabriel is offered thirty thousand pounds to gain entry to his apartment and memorise what he has hidden in a locked room.
With a young family to support, Gabriel needs the money - badly.
Gabriel agrees but soon finds that getting into the room isn't as difficult as working out the truth about its contents.
And for The Nightwatchman, the night is about to get very dark indeed.
'The Nightwatchman' is a suspenseful mystery with enough twists to keep any thriller addict gripped to the very last page. It is perfect for fans of Linwood Barclay and Harlan Coben.
Scott Griffin is the best-selling author of 'The Benefactor' and 'The Donor'
His work has been widely praised.
'Take my advice - don't start reading "The Donor. Don't start, that is, unless you have time to finish it. Scott Griffin's thriller grabs you by the throat from the first sentence and holds you to the last word. Taut, tight, tense, it's a switchback ride to hell. You'll love every minute of it. - Colin Dunne, best-selling author of 'Black Ice'.
'Modern, slick, and very, very scary, this is a classic thriller' - Matt Lynn, best-selling author of the 'Death Force' series.
