S E Lynes recommends

The Psychiatrist (2025)
Emma Curtis
"Filmic, f****d-up and full of dark sexual intrigue, The Psychiatrist will have you biting your nails as one woman's world descends into the stuff of nightmares. This needs to be a movie - spectacular!"

No One Would Do What the Lamberts Have Done (2025)
Sophie Hannah
"Brilliance, with a twist worthy of Agatha Christie herself."
