The audiobook is narrated by Elliot Fitzpatrick, Olivia Vinall and Helen Keeley and also features Olivia Dowd, Paul Panting, Joe Gaminara and Heather Long. 'Araminta is one of the most daring and intriguing writers working today. This is a resonant, razor-laced and dangerously glittering novel' Gillian Flynn 'An absolutely thrilling tale, full of breathless cliffside terror and fresh feminist theory masked in tight, propulsive mystery. I devoured this book' Lisa Taddeo ********* If most men say they’re one of the good guys, then why are so many women afraid to walk alone at night? Cole is the perfect husband: a romantic, supportive of his wife, Mel’s career, keen to be a hands-on dad, not a big drinker. A good guy. So when Mel leaves him, he's floored. She was lucky to be with a man like him. Craving solitude, he accepts a job on the coast and quickly settles into his new life where he meets reclusive artist Lennie. Lennie has made the same move for similar reasons. She is living in a crumbling cottage on the edge of a nearby cliff. It’s an undeniably scary location, but sometimes you have to face your fears to get past them. As their relationship develops, two young women go missing while on a walk protesting gendered violence, right by where Cole and Lennie live. Finding themselves at the heart of a police investigation and media frenzy, it soon becomes clear that they don’t know each other very well at all. This is what happens when women have had enough . . . ********* ‘A dark, dazzling shock to the system. One of the Good Guys is clever, composed, exciting and frightening’ Chris Whitaker 'Scorching, smart and soaked in feminist rage, this is a suspense that stays with you long after the last page' Ellery Lloyd 'It got me by the throat and wouldn’t let go. It’s creepy, thought-provoking, compelling and so very relevant' Julie Cohen 'A mind-bending tour de force. Araminta Hall has always been one of my favorite writers, but what she has done here is groundbreaking. This thriller is shocking, twisted, dark, and absolutely on-point' Samantha Downing 'A bold and on-point feminist thriller about gendered violence with Gone Girl twistiness and narrator unreliability' Victoria Selman 'A dark, original and thought-provoking read. This book will hook you from the first page and keep you thinking long after the last' Alice Feeney

One of the Good Guys

A gripping psychological suspense readA family near breaking point hire a nanny with secrets of her own in this gripping novel from an exciting talent. Cupboards were sticky from spilt jam and honey, and the oven smoked when you turned it on because of the fat that had built up over the years. Agatha would never, ever let her future home end up like this. She would never leave it every day like Ruth did. She would never put her trust in strangers. Ruth and Christian are – just – holding their marriage together, after Christian's disastrous affair a year ago. But chaos beckons, and when the family are suddenly left without any childcare, Agatha comes into their lives to solve all their problems. But Agatha is not as perfect as she seems and her love for the children masks a deeper secret. Everything and Nothing is a stunningly assured debut, superbly evoking an atmosphere of inexorable and sinister menace that builds to a mesmerising climax in a story that is, at its heart, about thwarted and damaged love. –––––––––––––––- ‘An assured debut takes the Mary Poppins myth and turns it into a menacing tale of the enemy invited in… I suspect that this will be the first of what promises to be a new genre: the nanny chiller’ Sunday Times ‘Chilling and suspenseful’ The Sun ‘An unsettling, menacing read’ Grazia ‘A suspenseful and emotive examination of a family in meltdown…Hall’s tale is told assuredly and touches on the darkness, tensions and unhappiness behind the facade of daily family life. It’s a skilfully executed debut novel that nestles perfectly alongside the dark, nuanced psychological thrills of Daphne du Maurier and Sophie Hannah’ Waterstones Books Quarterly ‘Everything and Nothing is a beautifully written, completely gripping novel that plays on the unsettling notion that sometimes the least safe place is your very own home' Emily Mortimer

Everything and Nothing

The remarkable new novel from the bestselling author of Everything and Nothing‘An emotionally compelling and deeply moving novel – I loved it’ Daisy Goodwin In a higgledy-piggledy house with turrets and tunnels towering over the sleepy Welsh village of Druith, two girls play hide and seek. They don’t see its grandeur or the secrets locked behind doors they cannot open. They see lots of brilliant places to hide. Squeezed under her mother’s bed, pulse racing with the thrill of a new hiding place Dot sees something else: a long-forgotten photograph of a man, his hair blowing in the breeze. Dot stares so long at the photograph the image begins to disintegrate before her eyes, and as the image fades it is replaced with one thought: ‘I think it’s definitely him.’ DOT is the story of one little girl and how her one small action changes the lives of those around her for ever.

Our Kind of Cruelty

When Hope finds her real life in the pages of a bestselling novel, truth and fiction become blurred. As a young woman, Hope’s dreams were as aspirational as her name. Curious and beautiful, she landed a job working for an up-and-coming author at his Somerset home. Drawn into the orbit of a glamorous bohemian elite, she quickly falls under the spell of this exotic world, which revolves around Ambrose Glencourt, his artist wife and their semi-adopted son, Tom. But her time with them ends in a fatal disaster. She has kept the truth of those events a secret ever since. Ten years on, Hope lives a lonely life that she has accepted not just as penance for what she did, but also to protect Ambrose. Except he hasn’t upheld his side of the bargain and is using her story in his new novel. And he has a very different tale to tell about what happened that summer . . . But which one of them is a reliable narrator? And at what cost do you take control of the narrative of your own life? * * * Praise for Araminta Hall: ‘One of the most daring and intriguing writers working today’ – Gillian Flynn ‘Razor-sharp, spine-tinglingly convincing and unputdownable’ – Lisa Jewell ‘Groundbreaking’ – Sunday Times

Unreliable Narrator

«L’ho adorato e ho divorato ogni riga fino al finale da brividi.» Gillian Flynn, autrice di L’amore bugiardo La loro relazione è finita Ma il gioco è appena cominciato Mike Hayes ha avuto un’infanzia difficile e si è ricostruito con fatica una vita solitaria ma serena. Almeno fino al giorno in cui ha incontrato Verity. Mike si è innamorato e ha giurato a se stesso che l’avrebbe resa felice. Ha trovato un lavoro, una casa e ha persino modellato il fisico per essere l’uomo dei suoi sogni. È sicuro che, nonostante gli alti e i bassi, finiranno per stare insieme. Non importa se V non risponde alle sue mail e alle sue chiamate. Non importa se sta per sposare Angus. Fa tutto parte del gioco segreto tra loro. Mike deve solo osservarla costantemente per essere sicuro di cogliere “il segnale” non appena V deciderà che è giunto il momento di salvarla. E così, quando riceve l’invito al matrimonio, Mike non esita un secondo a confermare la sua presenza. Probabilmente è lì che V ha intenzione di chiedergli di intervenire. La loro è un’intesa speciale, segreta, e Mike è sicuro di conoscerne a fondo le regole. Perché non importa se apparentemente la loro relazione è finita. Il gioco è appena cominciato. Tradotto in 12 paesi Un morboso gioco segreto tra due amanti può avere conseguenze mortali «L’incredibile storia di un’ossessione.» Daily Mail «Un incubo perfetto.» A.J. Finn, autrice del bestseller La donna alla finestra «L’autrice ha saputo costruire una trama angosciante che sfrutta le ambiguità dei protagonisti. Araminta Hall è una scrittrice da tenere d’occhio.» Publishers Weekly Araminta Hall è una giornalista e insegna Scrittura creativa a Brighton, dove vive con il marito e i tre figli. Dopo il successo dei primi libri, che le sono valsi numerosi riconoscimenti, arriva in Italia con Il nostro gioco crudele, recentemente ristampato con il titolo Nessuno deve sapere.
