When We Fall
It isn’t strangers you need to worry about here. Blood lines run deep and in unexpected places. Every victim, every accused, we’ll know. The past runs alongside us all the time. Some days it spills into the open.
Those Who Perish
A remote island
An isolated community
A killer picking them off one by one
When a sniper starts terrorising the isolated community, the brothers must rely on each other like never before.
The Mother
Widow turns vigilante in Jane Caro’s unsettling crime novel.
It’s not just the young who have had enough of toxic masculinity.
ANA. All In: TV review by Siobhan Mullany
You don’t have to be a legal nerd to be sucked into the vortex of this series. I was furious with Ana. Her behaviour was almost too much. Her injuries were not pretty. And I was on the edge of the seat. No spoilers, but the ending is terrific.
My Best Friend’s Murder
I wish I could tell you how the blood pooling around your head looks like a halo.
But you’re past listening.
You Don’t Know Me
Is the truth worth telling if it will destroy everything?
When Noah Carruso goes on a getaway holiday to Thailand, he has no idea he will meet the woman of his dreams. Alice Pryce bears a striking resemblance to someone close to Noah’s heart. But can they overcome the difficulties they face in order to pursue a relationship?
Bad Habits
Butchered bodies and their questionable use; a murdered man in a skip; a brazen multi-million-dollar haul from a safety deposit facility; thefts from a high-end jewellers and art galleries…
All in day’s work for Eve and her team.
Dream Girl
How can a woman who never existed come back to haunt you?
Gerry Anderson has been having trouble sleeping. He’s unwell – bed-bound – and has only his night nurse and his PA for company. But what’s really troubling him are the phone calls. Phone calls from a woman claiming to be the ‘real’ Aubrey.
But that can’t be. Aubrey’s just a character Gerry made up in a book, years ago.
