FIND THE TRUTH.
The utterly original and brilliantly gripping thriller for fans of BEHIND HER EYES by Sarah Pinborough and THE SEVEN DEATHS OF EVELYN HARDCASTLE by Stuart Turton.
'Gripping, inventive and utterly unpredictable' - Alex Pavesi, bestselling author of EIGHT DETECTIVES.
'Ambitious and well executed' - GUARDIAN
'[A] rollercoaster crime noir thriller' - INDEPENDENT
_______________________
Erma Bridges' life is far from perfect, but entirely ordinary. So when she is shot twice in a targetted attack by a colleague, her quiet existence is shattered in an instant.
With her would-be murderer dead, no one can give Erma the answers she needs to move on from her trauma. Why her? Why now?
So begins Erma's quest for the truth - and a dangerous, spiralling journey into the heart of darkness.
With all the inventiveness of The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle and the raw brutality of Mulholland Drive, THE SPIRAL is a unique crime thriller with killer twists - and 2021's most jaw-dropping ending.
