Viola Ted: Rule #1... Don't Call the Police

If you like Karin Slaughter and Mo Hayder's often gritty, violent, graphic Thrillers, then Mersaidee Soules' Debut Psychological Thriller, Viola Ted, might interest you!

Set in the 90s, Viola Ted has an atmospheric, character-driven style, reminiscent of Twin Peaks but without the supernatural. This story follows a complex, fast-paced, deeply traumatized individual, similar to The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, minus law enforcement.

Following a second suspicious death in her low-income community, Viola Ted's coming-of-age is cut short in her small town when she's kidnapped by a serial killer who is searching for a missing book. Navigating lies and physical attacks, without a way out, Viola attempts to play his sinister cat-and-mouse games to stay alive. When she finds the book, she uncovers a terrible secret involving deceit and a conspiracy that dates back six hundred years.

To save herself, Viola may have to destroy her family. But can she?
