TJ Emerson is the author of gripping psychological thrillers. Her latest novel, The Last Mrs Sinclair, is published by Boldwood Books. Set in a château in the French countryside, it follows the story of Leah Williams, a young woman determined to secure a life of luxury and financial security by marrying a rich man. When she meets Miles Sinclair, a grieving widower many years her senior, she thinks she may have struck gold. But when Miles takes her for a holiday at his château in France, the same château where his first wife died, Leah begins to fear that the dream life she has imagined for herself may be turning into a nightmare.
Tracey’s first thriller for Boldwood, The Perfect Holiday, was an Amazon bestseller. Set on the island of Mallorca, it tells the story of Julian and Olivia, a married couple enjoying a tranquil holiday in their isolated coastal villa. A holiday that takes a deadly turn when they meet Gabriel, a charismatic American, many years their junior.
‘This taut, elegant thriller thrums with dark menace and dread. I couldn’t look away.’
– Kate Riordan, bestselling author of The Heatwave
