Psychological thrillers packed with dark secrets, twists and unexpected endings — never too graphic or explicit. ʙᴏᴏᴋꜱ | ᴡᴇʙꜱɪᴛᴇ ɪɴꜰᴏ ↓

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is one of those atmospheric, quietly intense thrillers that pulls you in through mood as much as mystery. Stibbe’s writing style is sharp and immersive. She captures the feeling of being on the outside looking in, watching her character’s darkest moments. #suspense #mystery

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Propulsive, compulsive, addictive.” A tangled web of deception, obsession, & mystery that will keep you guessing until the last page. Prepare yourself for the ultimate mind-bending marriage thriller & step inside Barton Manor to experience a story where nothing is as it seems.

Deadly fires are lighting up Brighton, and the latest case is alarmingly close to home for DC Eve Starling. The blaze was deliberately set, and a mother and daughter didn’t make it out of the smoke.  Eve’s investigation takes her deep into her own uncomfortable past. When her key witness disappears, and with the killer always one step ahead, Eve is desperate to solve the case – whatever the cost.  But Eve has no idea how close she is to the flames, and playing with fire can get you burned…
