Blood Secret (Jaye Ford, Random House)

Looking for your next nail-biting suspense thriller? Davitt award-winning author Jaye Ford (Beyond Fear, Scared Yet?) has written just the thing. Blood Secret throws readers directly into some fast-paced action with a road rage incident and the disappearance of a main character. Rennie Carter is a strong woman and a survivor. She doesn’t like to settle anywhere for too long, but that was before she found idyllic Haven Bay, ‘the safest place in the world’, and fell in love with Max Tully, the man she has been living with for the past five years. However, paradise is not what it seems, and when Max disappears one night without a trace, Rennie’s world is turned upside down. Rennie, Max’s son, his business partner and their group of friends are soon drawn into a dangerous drama, and while Rennie is battling her own demons, her focus is to find Max. Fear and adrenaline pulse through this novel about family ties, making mistakes and coming to terms with the past.
