Primal Mirror International Cover Reveal

How smoking hot is this cover!!!! Those eyes! Those lips!!🔥

PRIMAL MIRROR releases this July.

Cover design by the awesome Rachael Lancaster for Gollancz!

PRIMAL MIRROR
by Nalini Singh

New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh takes us into a family dark with shadowy secrets, as the world of the Psy teeters on the edge of a final catastrophic collapse. . . 

Daughter of two ruthless high-Gradient telepaths, Auden Scott is not the child her Psy parents wanted or expected, even before her brain injury. Her thoughts are scattered, her memories fuzzy—or just terrifyingly blank. The only thing she knows for certain is that she must protect her unborn baby . . . a baby she has no recollection of conceiving and who draws an unnerving depth of interest from her dead mother’s closest associates.

Leopard alpha Remi Denier is a man driven by the primal instinct to protect. Protect his pack, protect his allies . . . and protect the mysterious woman who has become a most unlikely neighbor. With eerie eyes that see too much and a scent that alters in ways disturbing and impossible, Auden Scott is the enemy . . . but nothing about this strange Psy is what it seems, and Remi’s feline heart is as fascinated by her as his human half.

Then Auden asks Remi to help her shatter the wall of secrets that is the Scott bloodline. What they unearth will reveal a nightmare beyond imagination. This time, the battle is to the death. . .

There Should Have Been Eight

 

The stunning golden alpine grassland on which I stood over a year ago and wondered hmm, how can I turn this into a quietly sinister thriller.

It’s beyond gorgeous in daylight but imagine it in the pitch dark, in the middle a snowstorm…and someone is bleeding from stab wounds…Welcome to the Shepherd Estate, half ruined and with secrets in the walls.

“There Should Have Been Eight” releases in 3 weeks!!

p.s. That’s frost on the grass in the foreground. So, so beautiful.
