Nobody does it better . . . nobody!

A daring tightrope walk of a novel. Exhilarating, emotional - a thriller charged with genuine depth and raw power.

Look for Me is an easily devourable and pacy page-turner - but what really got to me was the mother-daughter relationship in it. Prepare for your heart to be wrenched.

Most debut thriller writers would be happy to have one amazing story to tell. Jessica Barry's come up with two, and the way she weaves them together will have you on the edge of your seat. FREEFALL is an electric mix of action and emotional drama that never stops, never slows down.

Freefall is the explosive debut thriller from Jessica Barry. It's about a woman who survives a plane crash and is forced to go on the run. It's a page-turner of a book, nail-biting and compelling, and I loved the relationship between mother and daughter, both powerful female characters.

The Hot List

Very rarely does a book like The Recovery of Rose Gold come along . . . this is a book that wastes no time in enticing in a reader and keeping them guessing until the very last page

Sinister and chilling . . . The writing flows beautifully and I felt like each character was confiding in me, trusting me with their secrets. I loved every bit of this thrilling story and the ending was brilliant and perfect. It's an amazing debut looking at the tangled web of a controlling mother/daughter relationship and a must read in my opinion

Taut, twisted and with two terrifically toxic narrators, this thriller offers a wonderfully wicked perspective on complicated mother-daughter relationships. Gripping

Striking. Unsettling yet compelling reading

It will make you laugh on one page, exhibiting the darkest of humour, and then make you shudder at the very next

A gritty story of truth and fantasy

Must read

I haven't come across two more unbalanced characters in books than this mother and daughter

Horribly riveting. At times I wanted to, but I could not put it down

Wrobel's claustrophobic debut explores the sinister subject of parents who deliberately make their children ill . . . Find out who's manipulating who in this clever chiller

Deliciously icy. Wrobel's cleverly constructed plot twists and turns, undermining any sense of integrity the minute you catch a glimpse of it

Absorbing, beautifully written

A masterful interrogation of a family's undoing ... and a ruthless examination of the pieces left behind

Dramatic and compelling ... a whodunit and a Greek tragedy all in one ... absolutely riveting

Nugent excels at creating a shocking story of a horrible family with huge issues and complexities that keep you hooked to the end
