Sometimes the only way to rebuild is to face the past you tried to escape…


On the night Fliss loses everything – her beloved hotel ravaged by fire and fiancé exposed as a cheat – she receives devastating news: her estranged mother has died. They hadn’t spoken in fifteen years and Fliss has stayed away for her own self-preservation.
Summoned to a dilapidated guesthouse in France for the reading of the will, Fliss is stunned to discover she has been left all her mother’s possessions.

If you’re ready to cosy up with your next dose of winter warmers, spine-tingling chills, and heart-racing thrills, or eager to stock up on atmospheric reads perfect for long, frosty nights, then look no further than our Winter Warmers & Chills Feature – bringing you the freshest literary picks of this season. 


The breathtaking opening to a new series that redefines the crime thriller genre.

On a misty autumn afternoon, a woman covered in blood clutching a baseball bat walks silently into a London police station. The two officers assigned to her case are DI Leah Hutch and DS Benjamin Randle.

But the woman refuses to speak. She is not injured and the blood on the bat is not hers. What has she done?
