SJI Holliday recommends

Delicate Condition (2023)
Danielle Valentine
"Pitch black horror meets smart psychological thriller in this fantastically moreish debut. I devoured it, feeling simultaneously sick and thrilled. And that ending... just perfect."

Fyneshade (2023)
Kate Griffin
"Absolutely pitch black brilliance. Dark, creepy and utterly compelling with characters who jump right off the page - this is gothic suspense at its very best."

Looking Glass Sound (2023)
Catriona Ward
"One of those books that as soon as you finish reading you immediately want to read again. Darkly mind-bending and softly gut-wrenching, this is another masterpiece from the incomparable Catriona Ward."

Call Me Mummy (2021)
Tina Baker
"Bleak but totally compelling and peppered with dark humour. Tense, twisted and totally unputdownable. Shocking and brilliant."

The Heatwave (2020)
Katerina Diamond
"Dark and twisted, but with sunshine and nostalgia to transport you."
