Bill Wood
This is a contained, high-pressure murder mystery with horror elements: an isolated theme park, a stalking mascot, successive deaths and a buried history that the protagonists must unravel.
Amy Goldsmith
A claustrophobic sea-set mystery with supernatural and mythological elements, it offers suspense, eerie atmosphere and questions about trust. Liv’s scholarship places her among wealthy influencers, giving the investigation a social-inequality strand alongside disappearance, romance and horror.
Ravena Guron
Choose this for a reader who enjoys solving an intricate murder puzzle alongside a determined young journalist. Expect a fast, suspenseful reading experience shaped by secrets, social tensions and repeated danger.
Jack Mackay
A strongly atmospheric horror adventure centred on a young carer who must recognise danger, face frightening experiences and reconnect her family after bereavement. Its emotional focus is grief and resilience as much as supernatural menace.
Iain Banks
This is a bleak, transgressive psychological novel whose first-person voice can make horrific material feel intimate, dryly comic or unsettlingly complicit rather than simply shocking.
Patrick Ness
This is a grief-centred novel with a supernatural frame, offering a serious exploration of contradictory feelings rather than a light adventure. Its short, spare narration contrasts with the monster’s larger, ambiguous tales.
Josh Silver
This is a character-led dystopian thriller in which an apparently helpful happiness project becomes increasingly strange. Its strongest material concerns pressure, identity and the meaning of wellbeing; its ending is abrupt and leaves the story hanging.
Lucy Strange
A richly atmospheric mystery for readers who enjoy eerie settings, puzzles and gradually revealed secrets.
