Danielle Giles recommends

The Art of a Lie (2025)
Laura Shepherd-Robinson
"An astonishing historical thriller: artful, wry and unflinching. Laura Shepherd-Robinson invites us to 18th century London both sumptuous and sinister, where no-one is what they first seem. With twists that are as exquisitely constructed as any Georgian confection, I utterly devoured this."

The Tarot Reader of Versailles (2025)
Anya Bergman
"I was totally swept up in this epic story of fate and betrayal, love and intrigue. As the two women fight for their futures and ideals in a world in which everything is turned upside down, every twist left me reeling. Bergman effortlessly conjures the glittering excess of Versailles and the heady ideals of revolutionary Paris. Opulent and gripping, this novel is clear-sighted about the costs of revolution, and the people who get left behind."

The Quiet (2025)
Barnaby Martin
"The Quiet is a propulsive, cerebral sci-fi thriller that asks important questions about our world today. Martin conjures a chillingly believable dystopia, but never loses sight of the characters that are finding their way through this fragile landscape. Hannah and Isaac's bond is deeply felt and had me rooting for them from the very start."
