A missing girl.A murdered friend.No one left to trust. ‘Seriously good suspense … trust me, you’ll need to know what happens’ Lee Child ‘Superb characterisation, humour and galloping plot’ Susie Steiner ‘This is that deeply satisfying thing, a strong, deft thriller with real depth’ Tana French Detective Inspector Robin Lyons is going home.Dismissed for misconduct from the Met’s Homicide Command after refusing to follow orders, unable to pay her bills (or hold down a relationship), she has no choice but to take her teenage daughter Lennie and move back in with her parents in the city she thought she’d escaped forever at 18.In Birmingham, sharing a bunkbed with Lennie and navigating the stormy relationship with her mother, Robin works as a benefit-fraud investigator – to the delight of those wanting to see her cut down to size.Only Corinna, her best friend of 20 years seems happy to have Robin back. But when Corinna’s family is engulfed by violence and her missing husband becomes a murder suspect, Robin can’t bear to stand idly by as the police investigate. Can she trust them to find the truth of what happened? And why does it bother her so much that the officer in charge is her ex-boyfriend – the love of her teenage life?As Robin launches her own unofficial investigation and realises there may be a link to the disappearance of a young woman, she starts to wonder how well we can really know the people we love – and how far any of us will go to protect our own.

"Hon intalade sig att det var neurotiskt att bli så orolig utan någon som helst anledning. Det fanns säkert en enkel förklaring och i morgon skulle han vara hemma igen. Allt var som det skulle." Hannah Reilly jobbar i New Yorks reklamvärld när hon blir stormförälskad och gifter sig med den perfekta mannen. Hon flyttar med honom till det stora viktorianska huset i London, men en dag kommer Mark inte hem från sin affärsresa. Hannah vet inte mycket om hans familj och han pratar aldrig om dem. Hon får en obehaglig känsla av att något inte är som det ska och bestämmer sig för att undersöka saken. Sakta men säkert flyter lögnerna om Marks förflutna upp till ytan – med livsfarliga konsekvenser. "Före dig" är en nervig thriller med högt tempo som håller läsaren i sitt grepp ända till sista sidan. LUCIE WHITEHOUSE föddes i England 1975 men bor numera i Brooklyn, New York. Efter litteraturstudier vid Oxford University började hon arbeta i förlagsbranschen. "Före dig" är Lucie Whitehouses tredje uppmärksammade thriller. "Spänningen stegras med varje avslöjande och behåller sitt grepp hela vägen igenom – den sorts thriller som får dig att fortsätta vända blad till långt in på småtimmarna och missa din hållplats på väg till jobbet på morgonen." THE INDEPENDENT "Denna psykologiska thriller är en berg- och dalbana av svek, pengar, syskonrivalitet och mord, den har både nerv och tempo när den väller in mot en rafflande klimax." THE DAILY MAIL

”Vad Marianne hade gjort var bara begravt, inte borta. Det hade funnits där hela tiden, slumrat, inväntat rätt ögonblick för att börja röra på sig, sträcka ut sig och bryta fram i ljuset.” Det är tio år sedan Rowan och hennes bästa vän Marianne tappade kontakten. Tidigare var de oskiljaktiga. De gjorde allt tillsammans, hemlighöll ingenting för varandra och Rowan var som en del av Mariannes familj. Men efter ett bråk förändrades allt och sedan dess har de inte utbytt ett ord. En dag får Rowan ett samtal. Marianne är död. Hon föll ner från hustaket och allt pekar på att det var en olycka. Men Rowan blir misstänksam. Marianne led av höjdskräck och skulle aldrig ha gått upp på taket av fri vilja. Dagen efter dödsbudet får hon ett vykort som Marianne postat innan hon dog. På vykortet har hon skrivit en enda mening: Jag måste prata med dig. ”Nära dig” är en gastkramande psykologisk thriller där spänningen stegras ända fram till det hårresande slutet. LUCIE WHITEHOUSE föddes i England men bor numera i New York. Efter litteraturstudier vid Oxford University började hon arbeta i förlagsbranschen. "Nära dig" är hennes fjärde thriller och den andra som utkommer i svensk översättning. Sedan tidigare finns "Före dig" (2015) på svenska.

Vem kan man lita på när livet står i brand?
Robin Lyons har fått sparken från Londonpolisen, kan inte betala sina räkningar och måste flytta hem till sina föräldrar med sin tonårsdotter. Den enda som verkar vara glad över att hon är tillbaka i Birmingham är hennes vän Corinna.
När Corinnas man blir misstänkt för mord klarar inte Robin att stå bredvid och se på när polisen undersöker brottet. Att det är hennes före detta pojkvän som leder undersökningen gör inte saken bättre. Robin bestämmer sig för att sätta igång en egen utredning och när hela hennes värld vänds uppochner får det henne att undra hur väl vi faktiskt känner människorna vi älskar, och hur långt vi är beredda att gå för att skydda våra närmaste.
Krisläge är den första boken i en ny serie av Lucie Whitehouse.

Smart välskriven brittisk spänning
Robin har återvänt till hemstaden Birmingham och arbetar som kriminalinspektör. På hennes avdelning finns också Samir - mannen som krossade hennes hjärta för snart tjugo år sedan.
När en kvinna hittas knivmördad i en övergiven fabrikslokal och ingen kommer för att identifiera kroppen måste Robin och hennes kollegor inte bara hitta mördaren, utan också lösa mysteriet om vem offret är.
Utredarna blir pressade från alla håll överordnade, media och högerextrema nationalister samtidigt som konflikter i Robins familj börjar brisera. Och när ett kallt fall från flera årtionden tillbaka stiger till ytan samtidigt som ännu en kvinna hittas död börjar rykten om en seriemördare spridas.
För att hitta sanningen måste Robin upptäcka var lojaliteten slutar och plikten börjar. Men innan hon kan känna tillit måste hon först förlåta - och det innebär att ta itu med en del smärtsamma insikter.
