Nicole, a senior prosecutor, is told that in order to save the life of those she loves most, she must secure the conviction of a defendant she knows may be innocent of a spate of serial killings.

What everyone is saying about Anna Sharpe:

'Fast-paced, topical, sharp and with a heart, I could see Notes on a Drowning played out on screen. Hope Anna Sharpe's cracking out the next one.' Sarah Vaughan

'A belter of a book. Shrewd, powerful, and constructed of smoke and mirrors, it's contemporary thriller writing at its breathless best. Anna Sharpe knows how to weave a tale.' Helen Fields

'A compelling, emotional and unputdownable thriller' Nadine Matheson

'Anna Sharpe is a masterful storyteller.' Kia Abdullah

'Breakneck plot skillfully delivered with writing to die for.' Imran Mahmood

'My kind of thriller: pacy, absorbing and smart, with great characters and brilliant dialogue on every page. I loved it!' TM Logan

'A whip-smart, taut thriller...It zips along like a high-end Netflix drama you can't help but binge.' Jane Casey

'Notes on a Drowning is a whip smart thriller, and I adored Alex, a clever, funny lawyer who is trying to hold together her career and failing marriage while trying to find out what really happened to her sister. Both gripping and compassionate, I really hope this is a series, and it would be perfect for TV.' Jo Callaghan
