Be Mine

by
  • Lizzy Barber

£4.99 – £9.99

**Featured as THE ADDICTIVE ONE in HEAT Magazine**

“Full of atmosphere and suspense – and with secrets spilling out of every page – this smart, psychological thriller is a breath of fresh air.”

You can run, but the past is never far behind…

From the Richard & Judy best-selling author of Out of Her Depth comes a thrilling ride about identity, manipulation, and our desperate desire to belong.

Once, Beth was a different person, convinced she was living her dream life with the enigmatic wellness group, Elixir. But when that dream became a nightmare, she had no choice but to run, no matter what – or who – stood in her way.

Ten years later, exhausted and struggling with the pressures of motherhood, she receives a mysterious letter bearing only the infinity symbol, and knows immediately it is from them.

The past she’d run from has finally caught up with her, and the secrets she’s tried so hard to hide will soon be uncovered. Can she finally escape them for good, or will her freedom pay the ultimate price?

If wellness is the new religion, what happens when it’s taken too far?

– L.V. Matthews, author of The Twins

“Lizzy Barber returns with a thriller that’s as chilling as it is addictive. Set against the stylish backdrop of San Francisco, this novel hooks you from the start, pulling you deeper with every twist and turn. The last quarter will have you gripping your seat as secrets unravel at breakneck speed. Prepare for an expertly crafted mystery that’s as sophisticated as it is suspenseful – a treat you won’t be able to put down.”
– Emily Freud, author of Her Last Summer

“There’s no better escape than one of Lizzy Barber’s smart, seductive thrillers. She’ll hook you with an intriguing mystery, but she’ll keep you up with her fabulous characters, with all of their weaknesses, spite and charisma.”

– Abigail Dean, bestselling author of Girl A

“Lizzy Barber’s novels are so well written, gripping and emotionally intuitive, I read each one in awe and then eagerly await the next. Be Mine is a tense, richly textured and unsettling novel that will linger in my mind for a long time. Appointment reading for fans of complex characters and compelling human dramas.”
– B.P. Walter, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Dinners Guest

“A cultish, moreish page-turner. Lizzy’s very engaging writing style combined with the sinister plot is the perfect combination.”
– Emma Curtis, bestselling author of The Commuter

“I couldn’t stop turning the pages. Such a smart and unsettling read. Lizzy explores what makes a cult so attractive and as the story progresses, the reader is filled with an ever-increasing dread as to how the story will end.”
– Nikki Smith, author of The Beach Party

“I adore Lizzy Barber’s novels and this is her best yet. Be Mine is not just a gripping thriller, but a chilling portrait of the vulnerability of new parenthood and of the dark allure of the cult of so-called ‘wellness’. Every new mother will identify with Beth as she struggles to reinvent herself, haunted by the ghosts of her past… I loved it!”
– Katherine Faulkner, author of Greenwich Park

“As immersive as it is chilling, Be Mine explores the thin line between wellness and the toxic pursuit of perfection. Set against the gut-wrenching haze of postpartum, this slow burn suspense destroyed me by its final pages thanks to Barber’s signature, sensational plot twists. Forget Kool-Aid. Grab your copy of Be Mine and drink the deliciously dangerous Elixir.”
