Advanced Reader Copy

Hi there,

I’m so excited to share an advance reader copy of my husband’s new book with you! Well… I say his book, but while he may have written the first draft, I’ve been right there along the way with notes, tweaks, suggestions, and the occasional “are you sure about that?” — so it’s probably fair to call it a bit of a team effort.

We’ve had such fun bringing this story to life, and now it’s finally ready to be released into the wild. I really hope you enjoy it as much as we’ve enjoyed creating it!

If you grab yourself a copy, please leave a review at your local Amazon store on the publication date – 18th March 2026.

Detective Chief Inspector Ernie Fenton has spent decades hunting monsters.

When the country’s most notorious serial killer is finally brought down, the world calls Ernie a hero. The press praises him. His superiors reward him. Justice, they say, has been served.

But victory doesn’t feel the way it should.

Because something isn’t right.

As grief tightens its grip and memories begin to slip through his fingers, Ernie finds himself losing time… losing certainty… losing control. Streets he’s known for years feel unfamiliar. Faces blur. Facts unravel. And the more he tries to hold on, the faster everything seems to fracture.

Is it exhaustion? Trauma? Or something far more sinister?

While a nation celebrates the end of one nightmare, another is quietly beginning — inside his own mind.

And if Ernie can’t trust his thoughts… how can he trust his perception of the truth?

I’m Netta Newbound

I am the best-selling author of over 40 thriller novels, novellas, and true crime books to date, including the Adam Stanley Thriller Series and the Cold Case Files. My debut psychological thriller, An Impossible Dilemma, shot up the charts in 2016 in both the UK and US, reaching #1 in several thriller and horror categories. This rapid success gained Netta a name for herself in the thriller genre. The Watcher also reached the top 20 in the US Amazon charts.

Originally from Manchester, England, I have travelled extensively and have lived and worked in various exciting places. I now live between New Zealand and the UK with my husband. We have three grown-up children and four grandchildren.
