Jean Levy writes domestic psychological thrillers about women discovering that apparently secure relationships have been built on lies. Other Women follows Sophie after her partner Jonah abruptly leaves and an accident exposes that he has been living under an assumed identity, forcing her to question both old relationships and the new people offering support. What Was Lost similarly uses disappearance, memory and uncertainty to build suspense around what can be trusted. Levy’s novels are contemporary, relationship-led and more interested in shifting perceptions inside families and friendships than in police procedure. Levy’s work sits firmly in domestic suspense and secrets-and-lies fiction, with threat emerging from partners, friends and familiar homes rather than an external criminal world. Read more Less
