Such A Perfect Family

Such A Perfect Family (A thriller)

Coming January 2026

A man with a deadly past marries into the perfect,  respectable family in this riveting thriller from New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh. . . .

A woman buried.

A woman broken.

A woman crashed.

A woman burned.

And the man who knew them all.

Love at first sight, a whirlwind Vegas wedding, a fairy-tale romance.

For forty-three days, Tavish Advani has been the happiest man in the world—until his new life turns to ash, his wealthy in-laws’ house going up in a fiery explosion. His badly injured wife lies in a coma, her family all but annihilated.

Tavish thought he'd left the sins of his Los Angeles life behind, but it’s not so easy to leave behind an investigation into the deaths of several high-profile women—all of whom he'd professed to love. Tragedy and death follow him no matter where he goes . . . but this time, he knows he’s truly innocent.

Desperately trying to clear his name as the authorities zero in, he begins his own investigation into the fire—and learns that his wife’s picture-perfect family may have been nothing but a meticulously constructed mirage. The truth is much darker than anything Tavish could’ve imagined. . . .

New Zealand-Set Thrillers

Alt Text: Thrillers by Nalini Singh: There Should Have Been Eight, Quiet in Her Bones, A Madness of Sunshine.

Have you tried any of Nalini's New Zealand-set thrillers?

There Should Have Been Eight is a locked room mystery except the ”room” is a gothic ruined mansion in New Zealand’s Southern Alps. It features seven friends, one huge secret, and a reunion that goes quietly, terribly wrong… 

Quiet In Her Bones is a quietly dark story about a woman who vanished ten years ago, and has now been found in the tangled forest only a short distance from her home...still dressed in the clothes she was wearing that night. What happened to Nina Rai? Someone in her exclusive cul-de-sac knows the truth...

And A Madness of Sunshine is an atmospheric thriller set in a remote New Zealand town. What if you knew one of your neighbors or friends was a murderer...but you didn’t know who... Who would you trust?
