About this ebook

Pre-order B. A. Paris’s brand new thriller WHEN I KILL YOU publishing Spring 2026!

The Breakdown is now released as the major movie, Blackwater Lane

‘Brilliant, chilling, scary and unputdownable’ Lesley Pearse

If you can’t trust yourself, who can you trust?

It all started that night in the woods.

Cass Anderson didn’t stop to help the woman in the car, and now she’s dead.

Ever since, silent calls have been plaguing Cass and she’s sure someone is watching her.

Consumed by guilt, she’s also starting to forget things. Whether she took her pills, what her house alarm code is – and if the knife in the kitchen really had blood on it.

From the international, multi-million-copy bestselling author comes another addictive psychological thriller that will leave you questioning everything...

'Utterly compelling, brilliant and tense’ Lisa Hall

‘You’ll be unable to rest until you’ve followed the twists and turns to an ending you didn’t foresee’ Daily Express

Readers love The Breakdown :

'This book has every necessary ingredient to make one explosive psychological thriller: suspense, misdirection, tension, duplicity and spine tingling twists... I devoured this book, I didn’t want to put it down'

'Another chilling, consuming and addictive thriller by the wonderful B A Paris, yet so completely different from Behind Closed Doors! I would 100% recommend'

'B A Paris has written an absolute belter of a tale that had my heart literally pounding... Read this in almost one sitting; it grips and doesn't let go. Simply brilliant'

If you're thinking of buying this because you enjoyed Behind Closed Doors, don't. Unbelievably idiotic main character, spelling mistakes, anti-climactic ending - if you have any self respect, don't put yourself through this. This is the worst thing I've ever read and I read the entire Twilight series.

Brilliant. The ending was completely unexpected! It was an intense read, and amazing work by B A Paris once again! However I found it not as good as the first one as the plot twist was too slow and took too long to come. I almost wanted to skip ahead, however once you get to the end you understand why it was slow and the importance of all the little things.
