Deep Blue Lies
Out Now :-)
Hi everyone,
Paradise with a body count...
That’s the quickest way I can describe my new thriller, Deep Blue Lies, which is OUT NOW in paperback, ebook, audiobook and Kindle Unlimited…
If you’ve been at all curious about the crazy boxes I’ve been banging on about for so long, you can finally go and see if the book was worth all the drama!
If you can’t wait a moment longer (which is fine by me), here’s the links:
👉 [E-book & Kindle Unlimited]
👉 [Paperback]
👉 [Audible]
But I have a couple of other things to say too... 🙂
Congratulations to the winners!
I did more promotion for this book than any I’ve written before, a lot more. I think that was mainly because I had a good feeling about this story once I’d finished it - which I don’t normally get. But I was also curious to try something new. My big idea was the collector boxes — exclusive packages featuring physical items “from” the Aegean Dream Resort. Room keys on driftwood tags scavenged from the beach, artisan soap from the hotel spa. The idea started as something for influencers on Instagram and TikTok, but evolved into a giveaway for readers themselves. A much better idea, as it turns out.
Well, the winners have been chosen and the 60 boxes are on their way. Congratulations if you got one! But if you didn’t (I never win anything either), don’t worry — we also made Virtual Collector Boxes for everybody. They show off a few of the goodies in the physical boxes, and will hopefully make you feel a little bit like a winner too — or at least that someone, somewhere thought of you. They’re free, fun, and you can check in right here, right now:
Deep Blue Lies – out now on audio
I’m usually terrible about remembering people who read on audio. But if you like to listen, you should be pleased to hear that Katie Villa is the voice behind Deep Blue Lies. She also narrated Little Ghosts, my most successful audiobook to date, which hit number one on Audible in the UK and US, at least partly because of the following she has. And when you listen you can see why people like her so much, she really is brilliant at understanding the rhythm of a story. There’s a short clip below where you can hear for yourself - it makes me want to hear more right away. If you’ve ever been tempted to give audio a go, this is a great place to start.

And finally, a big thank you…
I honestly don’t know whether any of this summer’s effort will make any difference to sales of Deep Blue Lies. But what I do know is how kind and generous many of you have been with your time and enthusiasm, trusting in the story before even reading it. So thank you so much for every comment, tag, message, review and email - or even just reading this. It really is appreciated.
What readers are saying
That’s all I have to say, so what are the 135 (to date) totally impartial NetGalley reviewers saying? You know, the ones who have already given Deep Blue Lies an average of 4 out of 5 stars:
“This slow burn mystery works its way to a boiling frenzy that will leave you slack-jawed.”
“The perfect blend of sun-soaked beauty and chilling suspense. Fans of Freida McFadden and Shari Lapena will devour…”
“Masterfully crafted psychological thriller! Highly recommend to fans of mysteries and unexpected twists.”
“Perfect psychological thriller! Twists and turns on every page and gripping from the very beginning.”
Sounds good! So if you’re looking for your next read — or even if you weren’t until you stumbled on this email — why not give it a try?
