    Book 1 - FRY
    She acts like she's your new best friend, but is she really a deadly enemy?

    When Isabel nearly runs over mysterious Alicia, she is filled with guilt. She helps Alicia get a job at the supermarket where she works and soon, Alicia is acting like her new best friend. Then fires break out all over town and she suspects Alicia knows more than she's letting on, but it's Isabel the police suspect. In order to survive, Isabel must question her own innocence, her sanity and the very fabric of her morality.

    Lorna Dounaeva's debut novel is a sizzling psychological thriller that will make you question how well you can ever really know a person.

    Book 2 - Angel Dust

    It's every parent's worst nightmare…

    When Isabel's daughter, Lauren is snatched from outside her school, she suspects Jody McBride is behind the kidnapping. Yet the detective in charge of Lauren's case seems more interested in picking apart her statement, and investigating members of her family.

    Can Isabel persuade the police to take her seriously, or will she have to take matters into her own hands? In order to save Lauren, she must take a stark look at her own relationships, and consider how well she really knows her daughter.

    Book 3 - Cold Bath Lane

    Who will pay the price for her silence?

    Nine-year-old Jody does well in school, despite living in a run-down part of East London.

    Then one terrible night, her life changes forever, and Jody is forced to make an impossible choice between telling the truth and keeping her family together. The police bring her in for questioning, and pressure her to tell them what really happened but is Jody ready to admit it, even to herself?

    Will the truth win out, or will Jody be sucked into a web of lies in order to protect her family?

    This disturbing crime novel is utterly gripping and impossible to put down.

    Fans of Rachel Abbott, Mark Edwards and Lisa Jewell will love these compulsively addictive psychological thrillers.
