Clock ticks in the darkness of Midnight

FROM the gripping opening line to the final heartstopping revelation, Helen Fields’s new psychological thriller Profile K pledges a trip into the darkest recesses of the human mind.

With a million-copy track record, Fields returns with a tale to hook us in, available for pre-order now.

I devoured her previous novel The Institution and this one was no different.

Midnight Jones is an analyst with an unparalleled understanding of the human psyche. Her world is disrupted when she stumbles upon Profile K, a file ominously signifying a killer in their midst.

As she grapples with the weight of this discovery, a woman’s murder sends shockwaves through the community, confirming Midnight’s worst fears.

What makes this a riveting thriller is its exploration of the terrifying reality that precedes the murder.

Fields delves deep into the mind of Profile K, offering readers a chilling glimpse into the psyche of a killer before they strike.

The tension mounts as she races against time to stop Profile K, knowing all too well that she is his next target.

Midnight is a complex protagonist whose vulnerabilities are juxtaposed with her commitment to looking after her twin sister. With each page, readers will find themselves rooting for her as she confronts her biggest fear.

Fields was a criminal and family law barrister and, drawing upon her years of experience, her narrative is filled with authenticity.

It is also brutal in places which made me squirm, I don’t know how she does it!

It’s no wonder that Fields has garnered critical acclaim with Sunday Times bestseller status and a nomination for the McIllvanney Scottish Crime Book of the Year to her name.

With its meticulously crafted plot, nuanced characters, and well-drawn suspense, you’ll devour this in one sitting or several late nights.
