Troublemaker

The gripping and claustrophobic must-read new mystery thriller from the Sunday Times bestselling author of THE RUMOUR, perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, B.A. Paris, and Claire Douglas.

'Tension mounts by the page in this exhilarating 'girl who cried wolf' thriller - a riveting, read-in-one-sitting treat'
- Louise Candlish, bestselling author of OUR HOUSE


Storm used to be just like her name. Wild and strong. A force to be reckoned with.

But ever since her younger brother was killed in a violent mugging, she has led a very different life: quiet and cautious, seeing danger everywhere. Storm's tendency to panic has resulted in several false alarms, so when she witnesses a murder with uncanny similarities to the way her brother was killed, and yet no body is found and no one is reported missing, the police don't take her seriously.

But Storm knows what she saw. And the murder is only the start - the killer will stop at nothing to keep Storm quiet. But how can she solve the murder and stay out of danger when no one believes her?
