The Cracked Mirror (2024)

Andrea Mara
"Full of twists and surprises, Someone in the Attic is a totally gripping, compelling read that will have you guessing and guessing again. She has a genius for creating situations where our worst nightmares come true. Hugely enjoyable - I couldn't put it down."

Truth Truth Lie (2024)
Claire McGowan
"Claire McGowan has such an incredibly consistent track record of writing thrillers that hook readers from page one, and Truth Truth Lie is another hit. Perfect for fans of Lucy Foley, Truth Truth Lie explores the power of guilt, paranoia and envy, with a group of friends coming apart under pressure."
