WHEN WE WERE FRIENDS

2015

Penguin

It had always been the six of us.

Since we met at university twenty-five years ago, we’d faced everything together. Break-ups and marriages, motherhood and death. We were closer than sisters; the edges of our lives bled into each other.

But that was before the night of the reunion. The night of exposed secrets and jagged accusations. The night when everything changed.

ONE STEP TOO FAR

2014

Penguin

Tina Seskis' stunning debut novel, One Step Too Far, is a gripping and haunting psychological thriller. 'It's funny how easy it is, when it really comes down to it, to get up from your life and begin a new one...' An apparently happy marriage. A beautiful son. A lovely home. Yet one morning Emily Coleman wakes up and walks right out of her life. What makes her do it? How will she survive? And, no matter how hard she tries, can she ever really say goodbye to her past? Emily has a secret. No-one has ever guessed it. Will you? Tina Seskis' One Step Too Far is an absolutely unputdownable story of secrets and heartbreak. "A gripping thriller that will delight fans of the unexpected twist ending". (Grazia). "One Step Too Far is a genius tale with a twist". (Stylist). "A compelling roller-coaster of a story with a shocking twist". (Lovereading.co.uk). "On occasion, haven't we all wanted to ditch our responsibilities, change our name and run off into a new life? Emily (or is it Catherine?) takes the plunge in this smartly written thriller". (Time Out).
