One Little Lie: The thought-provoking read perfect for your book club! 'Wild and brilliantly written' (Vogue Williams)

"One little white lie. One tiny omission. A slight manipulation of the truth. But that moment would change everything… 'A big tangled mess of lies that I couldn't put down … Wild and brilliantly written, I loved it' VOGUE WILLIAMS ‘A must for your book club. Provocative, emotionally challenging and everyone will have an opinion - guaranteed’ IMOGEN CLARK, Reluctantly Home ‘Despicable, controversial and peep-through-your-fingers compelling’ RACHEL SARGEANT, The Perfect Neighbours ‘Will stay with me for a long time’ LOUISE JENSEN, The Intruders It was the small things that weighed Sarah down. The dirty dishes abandoned in the sink. The empty bottle of milk put back inside the fridge. The clothes left crumpled on the floor. A life of never-ending mental load and constant demands. Somewhere along the way, Sarah had become a caretaker for everyone around her, both at home and at work. Then came the lie. One harmless white lie, she thought. Just a little shift in the narrative. And for a while everything became better. But one lie wasn’t enough. It was soon followed by another. And another. Until the truth became something unrecognizable, a distant memory swallowed by fiction. She never intended for it to spiral this way. It was just one little white lie. But the truth would inevitably threaten everything she held dear… Readers can't stop talking about One Little Lie… (5 star reader reviews *****) ‘A sharp, thought-provoking domestic drama that explores how a single white lie can spiral into something far more destructive’ ‘Loved this read … It felt brilliant and fresh within the genre’ ‘A clever, thought-provoking book … would make a brilliant book club read’ ‘Despicable, polarising and uncomfortably compelling. A good one for book clubs to discuss’ ‘I expected domestic drama. What I got was a slow-motion emotional breakdown of epic proportions’"

Murder on Devil’s Ridge: An atmospheric and addictive Victorian murder mystery

"The girl lies on the ancient stone, her brown hair falling loosely onto the crude altar. Her narrow little arms are crossed just beneath the strange, angular dagger protruding from her chest. Nurse Gemma Bell and her new husband, Inspector Sebastian Bell, are visiting his family in Suffolk when a neighbor discovers the brutal murder of a young girl, high on Devil’s Ridge. Left alone to examine the body while Sebastian breaks the devastating news to the girl’s father, Viscount Ravenel, Gemma finds disturbing wounds that suggest calculated ritual, not random violence. And before long, whispers from the village reach her of Pagan sacrifice and ancient blood offerings. With no local police, the desperate viscount begs Sebastian and Gemma to investigate. And as the couple question the manor’s servants and family, they uncover forbidden desires, bitter resentments, and desperate ambitions lurking behind respectable façades. When another child vanishes from her bed, the investigation takes on terrible urgency. Racing against time to prevent another death, Gemma risks everything to uncover the truth.
