‘There is an engaging balance of menace and emotional mayhem. In fact it is damned thrilling’ – Glasgow Herald
Fleeing from some desperate threat, Anna Miles arrived amid the rural calm of Aubrete like a person without a past. And here, for months, she has hidden from the world.
But now, on a storm-lashed night, a stranger arrives at Anna’s door – a girl she does not know, with the body of an old woman in her car. But the mysterious young visitor steadfastly refuses to speak or explain what happened.
As the police try to unravel the silent girl’s history, it seems that there is a link to Anna Miles after all, despite her persistent denials. That link is Ben McGovern – a man who has successfully traced and followed them both, bringing the past unbearably close.
Chief Inspector Robert Wilde assumes the task of investigating the elderly passenger’s suspicious death. But how can he get the girl to talk? What terrible history do she and Anna share? And is the nearby Aubrete estate the focus for something much darker and more dangerous than anything he has ever investigated before?
‘Compulsive and claustrophobic … the writing embroiled me … and, like a pit-bull terrier, refused to let go. Just when it seemed the suspense had peaked, McGregor turned the ratchet another notch and forced me to read on … made me turn pages with an eagerness that defied sleep’ – Val McDermid, Manchester Evening News
‘Without doubt the most unputdownable psychological thriller I have come across for a long time’ - The Lady

An unhealthy obsession…with deadly consequences…
When Faith Collins discovers that she is pregnant shortly after her divorce, the news comes as a surprise. Desperate to start a new life and escape her heartbreak, Faith, an artist by profession, buys a rundown house on an island off the coast of Dorset.
When Faith is approached by Cecily Joscelyne, a famous interior designer, to provide a set of paintings for a client, it seems that her life is finally getting back on track.
But Cecily, or Joz as she is known, is secretly battling her own demons: mentally abused by her stepfather, Randolf, and hopelessly besotted by her brother, Thomas, she is close to a complete breakdown. Joz believes that if she can just find a retreat on the island that she and Thomas used to imagine as children, everything will be perfect. But there is one thing standing in the way of her plan: Faith Collins.
Faith’s house is the sanctuary Joz longs for – and one that she will do anything to get. With Joz prepared to go to extreme lengths to get what she wants, will Faith escape unscathed? A chilling tale of violent obsession, You Belong to Me is a riveting psychological thriller that explores the depths of the human psyche and the devastating consequences of one woman’s obsessive pursuit.

It started with Ruth – everything did, in the end...
Lin can't escape her husband's ex-wife, Ruth. She's showing up at their home unannounced, letting herself in at all hours, and phoning nonstop. But Lin's husband, Kieran, doesn't believe her. To him, Ruth is the true love of his life, the woman he'd still be with had he and Lin not had an affair - an affair that resulted in the birth of their baby boy, Theo.
As much as it pains her, Lin feels she can't compete with Ruth.
Now, after a trauma directly caused by Ruth, Lin fears her husband will begin to question her sanity. And things are only getting worse. Suddenly, Lin's hearing voices, seeing people who aren't there, knowing things she can't possibly know. Her strange symptoms confuse even her doctors. Lin thinks it's a miracle, but it's a miracle that might cost her everything she cherishes...including her own life.
That is, if Ruth has anything to say about it...

'Rips along with a quirky twist on almost ever page' - EVENING STANDARD
THE BOOK BEHIND THE HIT BBC SERIES
‘Any other year, summer arrived with the swallows. But this year, the broken body of a bird, left on the porch, serves as an omen of deception, a shadow cast over the days to come…’
Beth March’s life seems unexceptional: she and her husband, David, have a conventional, quiet marriage. The opening morning of the nightmare seems like just another day, aside from the unexpected body of the bird…but while Beth showers and prepares for the day, David drives his car at full speed into the path of a lorry. He is killed instantly. From the moment that Beth learns of his fate, her world begins to shatter around her. Nothing in her life can ever be the same again.
Was David having an affair? Why did he go behind her back to sell his shares and take out another mortgage — and where is that money now? What dark secrets lie beneath the picture-perfect image of the family down the lane?
As she unravels the chain of tragic events that preceded her husband’s death, Beth finds herself tossed from side to side on a sea of continually shifting information, never sure what is true and what is not. What seem like little white lies gradually begin to build and build until Beth truly begins to realise the horror of devastating betrayal experienced by everyone involved…
Little White Lies is an intriguing rollercoaster of suspicion, deceit and the quest for the truth.
