THE OTHER PEOPLE by CJ Tudor (£12.99, Michael Joseph, HB) CJ Tudor has crafted an intense novel that gets right to the heart of what it means to love and grieve. Gabe sees his fi ve-year-old daughter
Izzy in the car in front.
At home, he discovers his wife dead and the body of a girl the police are convinced is Izzy. Three years later, the events of that night are emerging – for when justice isn’t served, some decide to take it into their own hands…
IF YOU LIKE THAT, TRY THESE…
The evil within She by HC Warner (£12.99, HQ, PB) Ever wondered if beauty is just skin deep? Well, it’s defi nitely the case when it comes to Ben’s girlfriend Bella. She’s stunning, but his family and friends feel that something is off about her. Soon, Bella’s controlling behaviour starts to seep out of her. The brilliance of this book lies in how it reveals each perspective. This is a real page-turner.
It’s all fl ooding back... The Woods by Vanessa Savage (£14.99, Sphere, HB) Focusing on suppressed trauma, The Woods has a haunting fairy-tale quality that s both immersive and eerie. It’s 10 years since Bella Cooper and her sister Tess went into the woods the day of their father’s wedding. Only Tess came out. Now, she returns and must confront her past.
Nowhere else to turn Happy Ever After by CC MacDonald (£12.99, Harvill Secker, HB) n this chilling debut, housewife Naomi’s desperation for another child leads her into temptation. As a rift grows between her and her husband James, she is drawn to Sean, only to discover that she is pregnant.
