We're delighted to reveal our Mindsight Crime theme for December 2026!
Some superstitions have a deadly cost...
Our December Mindsight book is an adult psychological thriller. You'll not want to miss if you're a fan of:
- Fast-paced atmospheric drama
- Dark plots
- Immersive character voices
When the disappearance of a missing girl looks linked to ritual practices, the upcoming election is making everyone more cagey than usual, and the systemic corruption looks like it could go all the way to the top, the smart thing to do is drop the case. Luckily for the missing girl, our detective has never been that kind of smart...
