One Dark Night: the stunning new thriller from the Richard and Judy book club author of The Search Party

A party at sunset. A body at sunrise. What happened that night in the woods? 'Utterly gripping ... I couldn't put it down!' SARAH PEARSE, author of THE SANATORIUM

ELLIE When the body of a young woman is discovered in the woods the morning after Halloween, arranged with ritualistic precision, teenager Ellie has more reason than most to be afraid …

RACHEL As both Ellie’s mum and the local school counsellor, Rachel, must grapple with the terror gripping the community, a tough job that’s made even harder when she realises her daughter is keeping secrets …

BEN Police detective Ben Chase is desperate to solve the murder, but with his daughter Ellie struggling and the noose circling ever tighter, can he catch the killer before they strike again?

'ONE DARK NIGHT is a superior crime thriller, with beautifully real characters and a wonderfully atmospheric setting. I read the closing chapters with my heart in my mouth, as the twists kept on coming. Compassionate and immersive, it's the perfect follow-up to THE SEARCH PARTY. I loved it' EMYLIA HALL, author of THE SHELL HOUSE DETECTIVE MYSTERIES series

‘Hannah Richell has totally established herself as master of the twisty thriller. I couldn’t put ONE DARK NIGHT down. It’s completely gripping from start to finish, with so much to enjoy - the heart-in-the-mouth twists, the pacy plot, the brilliantly drawn characters and the brilliant sense of place. The perfect (dark) summer read’ HARRIET EVENS, author of THE TREASURES 'Thrilling and page-turning' SALLY HEPWORTH, author of DARLING GIRLS
