Discover four gripping psychological thrillers by bestselling Irish author Jo Spain in this 4-book paperback collection. Featuring The Confession, Six Wicked Reasons, The Perfect Lie, and Dirty Little Secrets, this collection explores secrets, deception, family tensions, betrayal, murder, and the hidden lives people protect at almost any cost. All of our books are brand new.
Includes: The Confession • Six Wicked Reasons • The Perfect Lie • Dirty Little Secrets
Jo Spain's psychological thrillers combine suspenseful plots with complicated characters, secrets, family relationships, and the consequences of deception. These four novels are standalone stories rather than a connected series, making the collection an accessible introduction to Spain's thriller writing.
The Confession begins with a brutal attack on disgraced banker Harry McNamara and the subsequent confession of the attacker, opening a story involving corruption, betrayal, greed, and hidden motives.
Six Wicked Reasons centres on a family brought together after years apart, where old tensions, secrets, and conflicting motives begin to surface.
The Perfect Lie follows Erin Kennedy after her husband, detective Danny, apparently takes his own life. Eighteen months later, Erin is facing trial for his murder as she discovers that the life she thought she knew concealed devastating secrets.
Dirty Little Secrets takes readers into the exclusive gated community of Withered Vale, where six neighbours each have secrets and motives connected to the death of Olive Collins.
This collection brings together four atmospheric psychological thrillers built around secrets • deception • betrayal • murder • family relationships • hidden motives • suspense • complicated characters.
Rather than following one continuing storyline, the four books offer separate mysteries and casts, making them ideal for readers who enjoy standalone psychological thrillers.
Perfect for: psychological thriller readers • mystery and suspense fans • crime fiction readers • domestic thrillers • twisty mysteries • Irish crime fiction • Jo Spain fans • standalone thriller collections • book clubs • home libraries • gifts for thriller readers

My experience with The Reading Spa was nothing but pleasurable. I ordered the Avatar book set as a gift for my partners birthday. I sent en email to check on shipping and arrival time to see if they could send it out before his birthday. They got back to me right away, said they would send it out as soon as they could, and were very friendly to converse with. There was one book missing that they addressed in our email exchange that hadn’t arrived for them yet. They took the time to send what was there so I could present the gift, and as soon as the other book arrived for them they sent it out immediately. I was able to present my gift on time, and my partner was so thrilled with it all thanks to them. I couldn’t recommend this place more!
