No Way Back How to commit the perfect murder. Alicia Thornton is an attractive 21 year old interior designer who works for 'Spanner 'n' All', a DIY store in the city of Benallwyn, North Wales. She is very skilled at her job, and doesn't suffer fools, period. After a visit to her granddad, who was still mourning the loss of his wife, Ali's grandmother, Alwen, during a fire at the Ferodino factory where she worked as a cleaner. And after listening to her granddad's anger towards Alfie Johnson, who also worked at the factory, after he'd heard him saying that it didn't matter about the cleaners dying because one of them was a capitalist. (He was a shop steward, a union man.) So Ali decided that it was time for revenge. After studying Interior Design Psychology, she decided to try and use covert hypnosis. During her time studying the psychology side of her studies, she'd read a couple of book on the subject, and decided to use this knowledge on Phil Johnson who was the grandson of Alfie. She worked out the process of covert hypnosis and got Phil, by the hypnotic process, to commit suicide. After successfully disposing of Phil, she discovered that his best friend Liam was out to get her, even though he didn't have any serious grounds for suspicion. After the way Ali had made him look a fool, he was out for some kind of vengeance. So Ali manages to recruit a college friend to use covert hypnosis to get rid of Liam. Two successful perfect murders. No one was anywhere near the victims when they jumped to their deaths. Suicide was the only verdict possible. Hope you enjoy 'No way back', which will be followed by the sequel, 'Still No Way Back'.
