Sunday Times Bestselling author and Richard & Judy pick VICTORIA SELMAN chats to Paul Burke about her new psychological thriller TRULY, DARKLY, DEEPLY, (UK link), serial killers and their families, Mindhunter and losing a beloved pet.
TRULY, DARKLY, DEEPLY (US link) Twelve-year-old Sophie and her mother, Amelia-Rose, move to London from Massachusetts where they meet the charismatic Matty Melgren, who quickly becomes an intrinsic part of their lives. But as the relationship between the two adults fractures, a serial killer begins targeting young women with a striking resemblance to Amelia-Rose.
When Matty is eventually sent down for multiple murder, questions remain as to his guilt -- questions which ultimately destroy both women. Nearly twenty years later, Sophie receives a letter from Battlemouth Prison informing her Matty is dying and wants to meet. It looks like Sophie might finally get the answers she craves. But will the truth set her free -- or bury her deeper?
