The Frozen People (2025)
(Ali Dawson Mystery, book 1)
Elly Griffiths
"Fresh and exciting with both humour and thrills, Griffiths' first book in her new series knocks it out of the park."

Someone in the Attic (2024)
Andrea Mara
"Someone is getting inside your house. . . It's a chilling premise, and Andrea Mara executes it brilliantly. This one is an absolute page turner!"
thumb
The Chamber (2024)
Will Dean
"A highly original thriller set in the claustrophobic, high-risk world of saturation diving. The tension is almost unbearable. A masterclass in suspense - I absolutely loved it!"
