HOUSE OF CORRECTION : A TWISTY AND SHOCKING THRILLER FROM THE MASTER OF PSYCHOLOGICAL SUSPENSE

**SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2021 CWA GOLD DAGGER AWARD** She's a murderer. Everyone knows she killed Stuart Rees - why else would his dead body be found in her shed? So now Tabitha is in prison, awaiting trial. Coming back to the remote coastal village where she grew up was a mistake. She didn't fit in then, and she doesn't fit in now. That day is such a blur, she can't remember clearly what happened. There is something she is missing, something important... She only knows one thing. She is not capable of murder. And the only one she can trust to help her out of this situation is herself. So she must fight. Against the odds. For her life.
