The Confession Room

The jaw-dropping and twisty new thriller: If you have a secret, they’ll find you …

Summary

'Bristles with dread and threat – it is not for a dark autumn night' DAILY MAIL
'Fast-paced and topical . . . a total page-turner' ALLIE REYNOLDS

Emilia Haines is an ex-cop with a secret.

She can’t get enough of the Confession Room.


It’s an online forum for anyone wanting to admit their sins – and sometimes their crimes.

For Emilia it’s the perfect distraction from her past.


Then one day she reads about a murder.

At first, she thinks it’s a hoax.

Until a body is found.


It’s not the last – and suddenly Emilia realises she’s discovered a serial killer.


But the killer isn’t just posting their crimes on the Confession Room – they’re posting before they commit them.


Which for Emilia means only thing: a chance to stop the killer . . .
