Claire Morgan has spent her life hiding in the shadows, a ghost in every sense of the word. As one of the literary world's most sought-after ghostwriters, her talent lies in crafting other people's stories while keeping her own tightly locked away. But when Morgan accepts an exclusive, high-paying job to write the memoir of reclusive thriller author Vivian Harper, she finds herself in a position she's never faced before: the subject of the story may know her darkest secrets.
Vivian Harper is no ordinary client. Famed for her chilling psychological thrillers and infamous for her reclusive lifestyle, Harper lives in a sprawling, isolated mansion where every creaking floorboard and whisper of wind seems designed to unnerve. From the moment Morgan steps into the cold, gothic estate, she senses something is off. The house is filled with unsettling artifacts-strange masks, ominous paintings, and an unnerving collection of clippings about unsolved crimes. Harper herself is both captivating and unnervingly sharp, her piercing gaze seeming to strip organ down to her core.
'Murder in the Margins-Blood on the Page' is a gripping psychological thriller that will keep you guessing until the very last page. With its twists, turns, and haunting atmosphere, this novel is a chilling exploration of guilt, manipulation, and the lengths we go to bury the past. Perfect for fans of 'The Silent Patient' and 'Gone Girl', this is a story where every word has weight, every secret has consequences, and nothing is as it seems.
