**THE TOP 5 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER** 'My book of the year so far.
Breathtakingly, heart-stoppingly brilliant... A beautifully
written, gripping, intelligent, unpredictable crime novel that
obsessed me from start to finish' Awarded Crime Novel of the Year
by Sophie Hannah, internationally bestselling author of The Narrow
Bed A chilling new thriller that gets into the heart and mind of
the killer, and the victim . . . Seventeen-year-old Tessa, dubbed a
'Black-Eyed Susan' by the media, became famous for being the only
victim to survive the vicious attack of a serial killer. Her
testimony helped to put a dangerous criminal behind bars - or so
she thought. Now, decades later the black-eyed susans planted
outside Tessa's bedroom window seem to be a message from a killer
who should be safely in prison. Haunted by fragmented memories of
the night she was attacked and terrified for her own teenage
daughter's safety, can Tessa uncover the truth about the killer
before it's too late? Praise for Black-Eyed Susans 'It's a terrific
plot, matched by the quality of the writing and superbly paced
tension' The Times Book of the Month 'Black Eyed Susans is a
compelling read, especially for Serial fans' Cosmopolitan 'Creepy
and compelling, Black-Eyed Susans is a shadowy and crooked journey
to a very dark place indeed, a twisty fairytale that deceives you
just when you think you've cracked it and a thriller to make you
remember why you love thrillers. Don't miss it' Observer, Thriller
of the Month 'One of the classiest thrillers you'll read this year'
Charlotte Heathcote of Daily Express and Sunday Express
'Mesmerising . . . In a crowded field, Heaberlin is something
special, and clearly an author to whom close attention must be
paid' Barry Forshaw, Crime Time 'About as good an example of Grip
Lit as you could read' Sunday Independent 'Sophisticated,
disturbing and with plenty of red herrings' Woman and Home 'We
can't remember the last time a thriller burrowed under our skin
like this. Sparkling characters, authentic emotion, and an
unpredictable plot makes this a terrific read from start to end'
iBooks, Books of the Month 'The assured telling of this chiller
combines to create a very modern Gothic horror that will keep you
up way past your bedtime' Sunday Mirror 'A sophisticated take on
the serial killer novel' Good Housekeeping 'Black Eyed Susans is
haunting, intense and original - it'll keep you guessing till the
last page' Closer 'A masterful thriller that shouldn't be missed.
Heaberlin's work calls to mind that of Gillian Flynn. Both writers
published impressive early novels that were largely overlooked, and
then one that couldn't be: Flynn's Gone Girl and now Heaberlin's
Black-Eyed Susans. Don't miss it' Washington Post 'A fascinating,
twisted book' Koethi Zan, author of Richard and Judy-selected THE
NEVER LIST 'This is a deftly organised, impeccably paced
psychological suspense thriller that nods to Daphne du Maurier and,
like all Heaberlin's fiction, boasts purr-inducing prose ' Sunday
Times, Culture Magazine 'Tense, pacy and compelling, Black-Eyed
Susans is a taut psychological thriller that keeps you on the edge
of your seat. Julia Haeberlin masterfully ramps up the suspense
gradually, building to an explosive denouement that you won't see
coming. Quite simply, the best thriller you'll read this year -
perhaps decade. Miss it at your peril. Keep Calm and Read a Book
