Katy Brent is an author and award-winning journalist from the UK. She has worked on newspapers, magazines and websites since 2005, writing about popular culture. How To Kill Menand Get Away With It is her first novel.
Bad Manners (2025) Amy Beashel "Made me simultaneously shake with range rope and whoop with solidarity. Every woman should read it."
How to Slay at Work (2024) Sarah Bonner "A hilarious romp that I just couldn't put down. Bonner's newest novel had me absolutely howling with her murderous boss. If Miranda Priestly went on a killing spree it would look like this. Just brilliant."
You Will Never Be Me (2024) Jesse Q Sutanto "With You Will Never Be Me, Jesse Sutanto has proven she is a real force when it comes to writing gripping suspense novels. This book is not only an 'up all night' page turner, but a biting social commentary on social media, influencer culture and why we should never believe everything we see online. The twists are unrelenting with several gasp-out-loud moments and Jesse perfectly balances these with pitch black comedy. In short, it's thrilling, funny and gloriously dark. I loved it."
Till Death Do Us Part (2024) Laurie Elizabeth Flynn "As a huge fan of Flynn's first adult suspense novel, The Girls Are All So Nice Here, I've been waiting for her follow up for so long. And it did not disappoint. Flynn expertly moved us between June's story in the present and a twisty family saga in the past. This novel has it all; a husband who may or may not have returned from the grave, a family who are hiding a whole bunch of secrets and a woman trying to make sense of it all. It's twisty, touching and written with Flynn's signature hypnotic style. And it's set in the vineyards of Napa. All thrillers should be paired with wine from now on."
The Summer Party (2024) Kate Gray "A tense, gripping and atmospheric thriller that will have you up all night."
The Night She Dies (2024) Sarah Clarke "The very definition of a page-turner and keeps you guessing until the literal last page."
Every Move You Make (2024) C L Taylor "She's only gone and done it again! I absolutely loved this book and finished it in one sitting - In true C.L. Taylor style, it's delightfully twisty."
My Name Was Eden (2024) Eleanor Barker-White "I really, really enjoyed this book. It's dark and creepy but still manages to stay realistic and within the confines of domestic noir. Nightmarish, but in the most compelling way. A proper page turner."
The Escape (2023) Ruth Kelly "A beautifully paced and darkly twisted thriller. It's like being in a deliciously crafted nightmare"
