Ali Lowe recommends

One Dark Night (2025)
Hannah Richell
"Hannah Richell is the new master of the atmospheric thriller. This story is a fast-burn that will have you suspecting every single character, before Richell delivers a satisfying 'ta-da' moment with twist upon twist. An eery, suspenseful read with a cast of characters you'll both love and hate, and an ending that will leave your jaw on the floor!"

When She Was Gone (2025)
Sara Foster
"I loved the premise before I even opened the book, and from then on, I was hooked. Sharp, compelling, and clever, Sara's story of rich people behaving badly had me captivated until the final pages. Put it on your to-read list!"

The Villa (2024)
Jess Ryder
"The mystery of bride-to-be Aoife's hen night murder kept me up late in to the early hours. Jess Ryder expertly explores the darkly-held secrets and simmering resentments of a group of friends on a fateful weekend in Marbella. I was there for all the twists and turns of this fast paced thriller, and it felt satisfyingly voyeuristic watching the characters unfurl in both the past and present. However, as much as you will love the ride - and you will - THE VILLA may just put you off hen nights for life."
