I’m the author of I LET YOU GO, I SEE YOU, LET ME LIE and HOSTAGE – page-turning thrillers that have sold more than three million copies across 40 countries, and hit bestseller lists including The Sunday Times and The New York Times. I also wrote the emotional rollercoaster, AFTER THE END: a family drama about an impossible choice that threatens to tear a couple apart. It’s the most personal novel I’ve written, and I’ve loved hearing from readers who have connected with it.
In 2024 I released a memoir, I PROMISE IT WON’T ALWAYS HURT LIKE THIS, based on my experiences of navigating grief following the loss of my son eighteen years ago. It’s a book to offer hope when you feel as though there’s none to be had; a book to give to a friend when you don’t know what to say.
