di Will Dean (Autore)

Hodder & Stoughton, 2026

'Haunting, heartbreaking, quietly terrifying. Unforgettable' CHRIS WHITAKER 'Devastatingly good. Tense as all the best thrillers are, but with an emotional heft that will leave you deeply moved. Will Dean's storytelling just gets better and better**' JENNIE GODFREY** 'Vivid, heartbreaking, and written with a deep understanding of how complex a family's love can be, Adrift is pure suspense from start to finish' JANE CASEY Three of them adrift on the narrowboat. Mother, son, and wickedness. Peggy Jenkins and her teenage son, Samson, live on a remote stretch of canal in the Midlands. She is a writer and he is a schoolboy. Together, they battle against the hardness and manipulation of the man they live with. To the outside world he is a husband and father. To them, he is a captor. Their lives are tightly controlled; if any perceived threat appears, their mooring is moved further down the canal, further away from civilisation. Until the day when the power suddenly shifts, and nothing can be the same again. The author of the 'master class in suspense' (Shari Lapena, Sunday Times bestselling author) The Last Thing to Burn returns with a high-tension thriller about a family's descent into darkness that is perfect for fans of Denis Lehane and Lisa Jewell. Early readers are loving ADRIFT: 'Easy 5 stars! This book has such a sinister, chilling slow burn, and then BAM! It's brilliantly character-driven, claustrophobic, and tense' ????? 'This is a dark, and uncomfortable read and such an emotional one. I was hooked from the start... This book is going to be big 10/10 from me' ????? 'The tension in this book is extreme, I wanted to find the barge and scream at Peggy and Samson to leave, such is the strength of Will Dean's writing' ????? 'I found the characters to be drawn beautifully, while contained in a story that was both riveting and harrowing, The book manages to make the hairs stand up on your skin as you read it. Exquisite' ?????
