On The Edge Summary

On The Edge by Jane Jesmond

Jen Shaw has climbed all her life: daring ascents of sheer rock faces, crumbling buildings, cranes - the riskier the better. Both her work and personal life revolved around climbing, and the adrenaline high it gave her. Until she went too far and hurt the people she cares about. So she's given it all up now. Honestly, she has. And she's checked herself into a rehab centre to prove it.

Yet, when Jen awakens to find herself drugged and dangling off the local lighthouse during a wild storm less than twenty-four hours after a 'family emergency' takes her home to Cornwall, she needs all her skill to battle her way to safety.

Has Jen fallen back into her old risky ways, or is there a more sinister explanation hidden in her hometown? Only when she has navigated her fragmented memories and faced her troubled past will she be able to piece together what happened - and trust herself to fix it.

On The Edge Reviews

A proper nerve-shredder of a tale. Literary Cornwall has rarely been so magnificently menacing. Hold on tight. You won't be able to let go until the very last page! -- Helen Fields
Gritty, gripping, knotty, intense - this is going to be HUGE -- Fiona Erskine
With complex characters battling their demons in the bleakest circumstances, On The Edge brings the dark side of Cornwall to life in this atmospheric thriller. A true page turner with unexpected twists -- Sophie Flynn, author of All My Lies
Jenifry Shaw, a recovering (sort of) adrenaline junkie, is smart, impulsive, bull-headed, and too daring for her own good. She might be a bit of a mess, but she never, ever backs down from a fight. In short, she's the girl you want at your side when stuff hits the fan and a fantastic character to anchor a new mystery series -- Heather Young
Complex characters and a setting so vivid I could almost smell the sea air - an astonishing debut -- Marion Todd

About Jane Jesmond

On The Edge is Jane Jesmond's debut novel and the first in a series featuring dynamic, daredevil protagonist Jen Shaw. Although she was born in Newcastle Upon Tyne, raised in Liverpool and considers herself northern through and through, Jane's family comes from Cornwall. Her lifelong love of the Cornish landscape and culture inspired the setting of On The Edge. Jane has spent the last thirty years living and working in France. She began writing steadily six or seven years ago and writes every morning in between staring out at the sea and making cups of tea. She also enjoys reading, walking and amateur dramatics and, unlike her daredevil protagonist, is terrified of heights!
