What to expect

Brought to you by Penguin.

You thought he was the one. You broke his heart. But now, he might be the only one who can save your life...

Anna and Reid weren't meant to be, apparently. She's a fiery American journalist; he's a stoic British detective - it was nice while it lasted, and then it really wasn't.
And Anna is over it now anyway. She's on the scent of a career-making story - a suspicious death amongst the cloistered elite world of Cambridge University, with a slice of police corruption too.
It's just, the more she investigates, the more there's only one person she wants to talk to about it. She starts writing Reid a long sprawling email - it's not like she's ever planning to send it.
Until suddenly, she's in desperate trouble. The problem with chasing a killer is that sometimes, you run right into them.
And the only detective she can trust with her life, is the one who broke her heart...

Critics Review

I totally recommend this twisty, unpredictable thriller
Claire Douglas
Propulsive, pacy, hugely immersive – a brilliantly told story. I didn't want it to end but also couldn't stop turning the pages!
No.1 Sunday Times bestselling author of No One Saw A Thing
Lodge takes her time getting her ducks in a row, but this pays off magnificently as everything finally comes together in the frenzied denouement
The Times
I loved Dead To Me, a whip-smart, twisty thriller full of intrigue, rivalries and a brilliant heroine you’ll be rooting for. Gytha Lodge gets better and better
Sunday Times bestselling author of Friend Request
Imagine Jane Casey and Lisa Jewell and Ruth Ware collaborated to write a brilliant psychological thriller set in dark academia, underpinned by a will they/won’t they romance. But this unique novel is all down to the talented Gytha Lodge – I highly recommend
Jo Callaghan
Dead To Me is a delicious slice of dark academia. Another gripping and beautifully written book from Gytha Lodge
