Nasty Little Cuts

TINA BAKER (VIPER, £12.99)

Waking from a nightmare, Debs goes to the kitchen to find a man with a knife. But this man isn’t a stranger, it’s her husband Marc – a man she no longer recognises. Ex-army, Marc is scarred by war, and abusive towards her, but Debs is far from innocent. The differences that initially attracted them now repel them, and their marriage is beyond toxic. But, with a knife pointed at her as her kids sleep upstairs, Debs won’t go down without a fight. An emotional roller coaster, you’ll find this dark and disturbing read both breathtakingly tense and sick-inducing. ★★★★
