Jessica Knoll recommends

Vantage Point (2025)
Sara Sligar
"Vantage Point oozes atmosphere and tension--I was seduced by the fabulously wealthy and famously cursed Wieland family and could not stop turning the pages until I learned every last one of their dark, dynastic secrets."

The Return of Ellie Black (2024)
Emiko Jean
"The Return of Ellie Black features one of my all-time favorite characters: an unreliable narrator who evokes both sympathy and suspicion as the mystery continues to deepen. I stayed up late into the night turning the pages until I learned the truth of what happened to Ellie on the day she went missing - and I audibly gasped when Jean delivered a truly jaw dropping twist"

The Lies I Tell (2022)
Julie Clark
"A meticulously plotted mindbender, with a last page I can only describe as a triumph. Do not miss it."
