I’m so excited to finally share that my thriller The Wrong Daughter is being published in the US by Kensington Books on 25th August 2025! It’s been an incredible journey, and I truly can’t believe how lucky I am to be working with the brilliant, dynamic team at Kensington.


The US edition comes with a brand-new, chillingly blurb that I love:


“Do you have a sister, Ms. Fairview?” The little girl’s question, in all its buttery innocence, slices through me, and the answer catches in my throat. It isn’t as simple as yes or no. It hasn’t been, in nearly sixteen years.

The evening Caitlin and Olivia's parents leave them to go to a dinner party, both girls are bubbling with excitement. At ages 10 and 13, they are at last old enough to stay home alone. After all, in their idyllic town no one even bothers to lock their doors.

As the summer light fades, after TV and popcorn, the sisters finally put themselves to bed. They’re unaware of the figure watching them through an open window. Or of the back door opening once they’ve fallen asleep.

When their parents return, they will find Olivia's bed empty. Their golden-haired, long-limbed, eldest daughter gone. Never to return. Until now.

But is the woman who claims to be Olivia all she seems? Is everything Caitlin said she saw that night the whole truth? Their family have dreamed of this moment, but both sisters are keeping more than one secret. What price will they all pay if they end up believing the wrong daughter?

I cannot wait for U.S. readers to get their hands on The Wrong Daughter. I hope this story keeps you up at night.


Pre-orders for the paperback are available now on Barnes & Noble and Amazon, so if you’re a fan of gripping psychological suspense, make sure you grab a copy and find me on social media to chat about it!
