Emily Freud recommends

The Lake (2025)
Catherine Cooper
"Utterly haunting and impossible to put down. Catherine draws you into a world where history and horror collide, weaving a backstory as compelling as the chilling present-day mystery. The Lake is brimming with tension and guaranteed to keep you reading late into the night. I devoured it!"

The Psychiatrist (2025)
Emma Curtis
"Tense, stylish, and full of twists I didn't see coming. I tore through the first part, desperate to untangle the layers of deceit. It's a dark, unsettling look at how far people will go to protect themselves, and the damage they leave behind, and I loved how it all came together. Another brilliant read from Emma Curtis."

The Break-in (2025)
Katherine Faulkner
"The Break-In is a masterfully twisted psychological thriller. When a self-defense killing sets Alice's life spiraling, long-buried secrets resurface and collide with present-day dangers. Faulkner weaves a gripping, character-driven tale brimming with taut tension and shocking twists - her best yet!"
