Emma meets Matthew, a kind and successful widower, and the romance moves quickly — too quickly, her friends think. Matthew's first wife, remembered by everyone around him as close to perfect, remains a presence in the house and in the marriage, and Emma cannot shake the thought that she is the consolation prize.\n\nWhat begins as ordinary insecurity hardens into suspicion. Jealousy runs in both directions, secrets surface on both sides, and the question of who is really being deceived keeps shifting. Parks builds the tension out of everyday domestic detail rather than spectacle — a look, an anniversary, a story that does not quite add up.\n\nPublished in the UK as The Ghost Wife, this is a domestic psychological thriller about second marriages, the versions of ourselves we sell to the people we love, and how little it takes for trust to give way.",2024,"en","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kxej76rrck4aanmwkvej5qpz.jpg?v=2dc2058128","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks-3d\u002F01\u002F01kxej76rrck4aanmwkvej5qpz.png?v=66feaa309e","LJAnZLawDiogyZozZ~RjH@j]k9j?","3.00",1,368,418,0,"complete",false,true,[18,18,18,18,18,15,18,18,18,18],[24],{"id":25,"slug":26,"name":27,"role":28,"bio":29},"01kqmatsycw8jzt2jd1pj694bj","adele-parks-waaa","Adele Parks","author","Adele Parks is a master of domestic suspense, known for her twisty plots.

The work is light, the pay is generous, and the Sterlings' world of designer clothes, poolside afternoons and industry parties is easy to fall into.\n\nWhen Nate begins asking Cassidy to read the scripts he is writing, she lets herself imagine a way into her own stalled writing career. What she is really being drawn into is the gap between how the Sterlings present themselves and what their marriage actually is, and when a death puts the household under investigation she finds herself badly placed to explain her own role in it.\n\nCobb writes in the vein of her earlier Texas-set suspense novels: an unreliable, wanting narrator, an atmosphere of borrowed wealth, and a plot that turns on obsession and self-deception.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kxehzm5gxam8fq1g189b1qf7.jpg?v=4a4d6a5607","LHGs.ZtD6*W9-qxbWBaw0e9snh-U",416,[366],{"id":367,"slug":368,"name":369},"01kt96zhv37kfj56kq5bvfh8j0","may-cobb-uecy","May Cobb",[371,372,373,374,375,376],{"id":48,"name":49,"slug":50,"is_fiction":21},{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":21},{"id":40,"name":41,"slug":42,"is_fiction":21},{"id":129,"name":155,"slug":156,"is_fiction":21},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":21},{"id":146,"name":147,"slug":148,"is_fiction":21},[],{"pace":98,"complexity":7,"audience":101,"mood":379,"themes":380,"setting_period":7,"summary":381,"content_warnings":7},[103,104,168],[107,170,108],"A psychological thriller.

To his surprise, Lily doesn't flinch. She calmly agrees that some people simply deserve to die, and offers to help him do it.\n\nWhat starts as an abstract game between two strangers becomes a meticulous plan, and then something far more dangerous. Because Lily is not a bored socialite indulging a fantasy. She has killed before, she has her own reasons for everything she does, and the tidy scheme she and Ted are building has more moving parts — and more hidden players — than either of them will admit.\n\nA modern homage to Patricia Highsmith, Peter Swanson's The Kind Worth Killing is a coiled psychological thriller told through shifting, unreliable points of view. Every chapter recalibrates who is manipulating whom, building toward a game of murder in which trusting the wrong person is the only truly fatal mistake.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kkfjhddwa1yebkm9bhnc9tck.jpg","LH9aT,_L?t%L_M?v.7xtOukso$s:",2015,"3.86",320,[452],{"id":453,"slug":454,"name":455},"01kkfjhddrz67f4y79e301r8ey","peter-swanson-tbik","Peter Swanson",[457,458,459,460,461,462],{"id":195,"name":196,"slug":197,"is_fiction":21},{"id":129,"name":155,"slug":156,"is_fiction":21},{"id":146,"name":147,"slug":148,"is_fiction":21},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":21},{"id":40,"name":41,"slug":42,"is_fiction":21},{"id":463,"name":464,"slug":465,"is_fiction":21},210,"Noir","noir",[467],{"id":468,"slug":469,"name":470,"position":203,"is_main_entry":21,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kkfjhdfa77fzhmx6sgxzkza2","henry-kimballlily-kintner-zm8g","Henry Kimball\u002FLily Kintner",{"pace":98,"complexity":7,"audience":101,"mood":472,"themes":473,"setting_period":7,"summary":445,"content_warnings":7},[104,103,105,167],[107,109,170],{"id":475,"slug":476,"title":477,"description":478,"primary_cover_url":479,"cover_blurhash":480,"first_publish_year":414,"community_rating_avg":481,"community_rating_count":158,"page_count":482,"authors":483,"genres":488,"series":505,"enrichment":506},"01kkfjf85f61ps80svxtebqej6","the-last-house-on-needless-street-6xfg","The Last House on Needless Street","At the end of a dead-end road, on the edge of a wild Washington forest, stands a boarded-up house.

Frank Cauldhame is sixteen, lives with his reclusive father on a small tidal island, and has never been to school or seen a doctor. He fills his days with private rituals: Sacrifice Poles ringing the island, and the Wasp Factory itself, an old clock face rigged with tiny death-traps that Frank consults like an oracle.\n\nThe novel's tension builds around the return of Frank's older brother Eric, who escaped a psychiatric institution and is making his way home, growing more unstable with every phone call. As Eric closes in, Frank's own past — and the reasons for his father's secrecy about it — comes into focus, building to a revelation that recontextualizes everything the reader has been told about Frank and his family.\n\nTold in Frank's flat, unsettling first-person voice, The Wasp Factory is frequently cited as one of the most divisive debuts in modern British fiction — praised by some critics for its craft and condemned by others on first publication for its violence. It suits readers of dark, literary horror who want disturbing content examined with intelligence rather than played for shock alone, and who are comfortable with an unreliable narrator building toward a genuinely destabilizing final twist.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kkfg92pwdb4e0gph4tdvxdqw.jpg","L#LzQ:n~xaofx^WCofkC.TWBt7of",1984,"3.50",184,[523],{"id":524,"slug":525,"name":526},"01kjsv9tpjq7n4t5ezv5k24rh3","iain-banks-3snp","Iain Banks",[528,532,533,534,535,536,540],{"id":529,"name":530,"slug":531,"is_fiction":21},58,"Classics","classics",{"id":502,"name":503,"slug":504,"is_fiction":21},{"id":129,"name":155,"slug":156,"is_fiction":21},{"id":158,"name":159,"slug":160,"is_fiction":21},{"id":146,"name":147,"slug":148,"is_fiction":21},{"id":537,"name":538,"slug":539,"is_fiction":21},59,"Contemporary Literature","contemporary-literature",{"id":494,"name":495,"slug":496,"is_fiction":21},[],{"pace":99,"complexity":7,"audience":101,"mood":543,"themes":546,"setting_period":7,"summary":547,"content_warnings":7},[104,103,105,544,545,167,168],"thought-provoking","complex",[107],"Sixteen-year-old Frank Cauldhame lives an isolated life with his eccentric father on a small Scottish island, connected to the mainland by a single bridge and governed by his own private rituals — including the Wasp Factory, a device Frank uses to read omens in the deaths of insects.

It's a coming-of-age story built on a foundation of genuine dread, about the things families and communities agree not to say out loud.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kkfjjgbrzn2h6ardw49a6vgd.jpg","LdE22loKaLj[}so1odfjr]oLs.az","2.50",296,[636],{"id":637,"slug":638,"name":639},"01kkfjjgbmss0web2ch1v8kkfy","jess-lourey-h9yi","Jess Lourey",[641,642,643,644,645],{"id":564,"name":565,"slug":566,"is_fiction":21},{"id":146,"name":147,"slug":148,"is_fiction":21},{"id":129,"name":155,"slug":156,"is_fiction":21},{"id":158,"name":159,"slug":160,"is_fiction":21},{"id":40,"name":41,"slug":42,"is_fiction":21},[],{"pace":99,"complexity":7,"audience":101,"mood":648,"themes":649,"setting_period":7,"summary":651,"content_warnings":7},[104,103,105,508,167],[650],"coming-of-age","In a seemingly ordinary 1980s Minnesota town, twelve-year-old Cassie McDowell watches her world curdle: local boys start disappearing and coming back changed, her own family is quietly falling apart behind closed doors, and her older sister drifts under a dangerous influence.

The moment her husband returns to the capital, the house turns against Beatriz — cold spots, voices, red eyes in the dark, and dreams that leave marks.

Together they must confront whatever malevolence has taken root in San Isidro before it consumes them.\n\nIsabel Cañas's atmospheric debut braids gothic horror, slow-burning romance, and the real violence of colonial-era Mexico into a haunted-house story told in two voices, as unsettling as it is romantic.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kkfh6kevcy89prnvvhsmnf8z.jpg","LA5=*Cr.E1L4WZg4e-i^ERW9s+sq",388,[661],{"id":662,"slug":663,"name":664},"01kkfh6kekjg81zwg1ytg9mskg","canas-isabel-lkrg","Isabel Cañas",[666,667,668,669,670,671,675,679,680,684,687],{"id":494,"name":495,"slug":496,"is_fiction":21},{"id":146,"name":147,"slug":148,"is_fiction":21},{"id":129,"name":155,"slug":156,"is_fiction":21},{"id":158,"name":159,"slug":160,"is_fiction":21},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":21},{"id":672,"name":673,"slug":674,"is_fiction":21},52,"Paranormal Horror","paranormal-horror",{"id":676,"name":677,"slug":678,"is_fiction":21},218,"Haunted House","haunted-house",{"id":564,"name":565,"slug":566,"is_fiction":21},{"id":681,"name":682,"slug":683,"is_fiction":21},35,"Paranormal Romance","paranormal-romance",{"id":277,"name":685,"slug":686,"is_fiction":21},"Fantasy","fantasy",{"id":40,"name":41,"slug":42,"is_fiction":21},[],{"pace":617,"complexity":7,"audience":101,"mood":690,"themes":692,"setting_period":7,"summary":656,"content_warnings":7},[104,168,508,103,691],"romantic",[109,331,330],{"id":694,"slug":695,"title":696,"description":697,"primary_cover_url":698,"cover_blurhash":699,"first_publish_year":414,"community_rating_avg":633,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":700,"authors":701,"genres":706,"series":712,"enrichment":713},"01kkfjf5eak3d08z05r6nyyvq6","the-first-day-of-spring-uhbb","The First Day of Spring","Eight-year-old Chrissie feels an exhilarating sense of power after committing a terrible act, a feeling she rarely experiences at home.

There are signs of a struggle in the living room, and as the hours pass with no word, the police and a ravenous national media begin to circle. Nick, evasive and strangely composed under the cameras, quickly becomes the prime suspect in his wife's disappearance.\n\nGillian Flynn tells the story in two alternating voices. Nick narrates the investigation from the present as suspicion tightens around him, while Amy's diary traces the couple's courtship and the slow souring of their marriage. The two accounts refuse to line up, and the widening gap between them keeps the reader guessing about who is lying, who is telling the truth, and what really happened on the anniversary.\n\nBeneath the missing-person case, Gone Girl is a caustic anatomy of a modern marriage and the performances it demands. Flynn dissects the roles spouses play for each other and for the outside world, the machinery of a media spectacle, and the resentments that accumulate when two clever, image-conscious people stop being honest with each other. Sharp, cynical, and ruthlessly plotted around a pair of unreliable narrators, it became one of the defining psychological thrillers of its era.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01ktkx3dk6k3s6syphedc5mc2x.jpg?v=2f60cfe167","L35;,O~p%#-:MxIUM{Rj029GMxIV",2012,"4.02",16,486,[936],{"id":937,"slug":938,"name":939},"01kjq7te064746m1ayvtbsbyh4","gillian-flynn-liux","Gillian Flynn",[941,942,943,944,945,946],{"id":195,"name":196,"slug":197,"is_fiction":21},{"id":129,"name":155,"slug":156,"is_fiction":21},{"id":146,"name":147,"slug":148,"is_fiction":21},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":21},{"id":40,"name":41,"slug":42,"is_fiction":21},{"id":44,"name":45,"slug":46,"is_fiction":21},[],{"pace":98,"complexity":7,"audience":101,"mood":949,"themes":950,"setting_period":7,"summary":951,"content_warnings":7},[104,103],[107,356],"On their fifth wedding anniversary, Nick Dunne's wife, Amy, vanishes, leaving behind a trail of clues that suggest a struggle.

The job comes with a beautiful Long Island house, a generous salary — and an attic bedroom that locks only from the outside. Millie’s employer, Nina Winchester, is erratic and increasingly cruel, leaving impossible demands and cleaning up messes that make no sense, while Nina’s charming husband, Andrew, treats Millie with a warmth that feels like a lifeline. As Millie tries to keep her head down and her past hidden, she realizes the household’s polished surface conceals something far more dangerous, and that the question of who holds the power here is not as settled as it looks.

She’s hired by Douglas Garrick, a soft-spoken tech executive, to keep the home and quietly look after his wife, Wendy, who is said to be unwell and rarely leaves a locked bedroom. But Millie soon glimpses bruises and other signs that something is badly wrong behind that door, and the instinct that has always gotten her into trouble — to protect a woman she believes is being hurt — takes hold. As she edges closer to intervening, she learns the situation is nothing like the rescue she imagined, and that the people in this household are each playing a longer game than she can see.
