I love thrillers! There is something about racing through the pages, trying to keep up with every twist in the plot, that I find extremely entertaining. If that sounds like you, too, then read on for some excellent new thrillers due out next month.
The Last Time I Lied, by Riley Sager. Sager, whose 2017 debut Final Girls was a reader favorite, returns here with the story of a young artist whose troubled past finds its way onto her canvasses. Her work intrigues the owner of Camp Nightingale, where Emma spent one life-altering summer as a teenager. The owner wants Emma to be the camp's new painting instructor, and Emma, seeing an opportunity to sort through some difficult memories, agrees. When past meets present, though, the truth may exact a deadly price.
Caged, by Ellison Cooper. For fans of authors like Kathy Reichs and Thomas Harris, this debut thriller from Ellison Cooper should be at the top of your reading list. FBI neuroscientist Sayer Altair studies the brains of serial killers, but even she is unprepared for a blood-chilling case involving a senator's daughter, who has been caged and systematically starved. Guaranteed to give you goosebumps even on the hottest summer day.
Whistle in the Dark, by Emma Healey. Follow-up to Healey's popular 2014 debut, Elizabeth Is Missing, Whistle in the Dark finds Jen and Hugh Maddox at the hospital where their fifteen year old daughter Lana lies bruised and disoriented. Lana cannot answer questions about where she has been for the four days she was missing; all she can say is "I can't remember." Now, without telling the rest of the family, Jen sets out to reconstruct the last four days of her daughter's life, seeking to understand not only what happened, but why. A story of fear, guilt, hope and love that explores the bonds of family, and how far they can stretch before they break.
