His & Hers

About the book

Journalist Anna Andrews leaves London to cover a murder in her childhood home of Blackdown, where a woman’s body was found with a literal mark of its killer. The investigation is led by Detective Jack Harper, Anna’s ex-husband, who discovers the victim was a person they both knew. As more bodies appear, the narrative alternates between Anna and Jack, revealing that both are hiding secrets from their shared past. Someone is watching them, documenting their lies and waiting for the truth to dismantle their lives.

This thriller serves readers who enjoy the unreliable narrator trope and complex, interlaced perspectives. It attracts those who look for stories where the protagonists are as suspicious as the antagonists. Readers gain a perspective on how repressed childhood trauma manifests in adult relationships and the way professional ambition can override personal ethics. It functions as a puzzle where the objective is to determine which narrator is purposefully misdirecting the audience until the final connection is revealed.
