Pretty Little Lies

A nail-biting psychological thriller

She's hoping she’s paranoid. She's terrified she’s not.

When Amelia relocated to Cambridge for love, she never imagined her new life would become a nightmare.

After uprooting her beauty therapy business to be with her fiancé Noah, Amelia receives the first message—anonymous, threatening, impossible to ignore.

As more sinister messages follow, Amelia's new life begins to fall apart. It seems someone is watching her every move and now her clients are abandoning her for no reason she can see. It’s as if she’s done something wrong, but what?

And Noah is no help. He seems strangely distant, then conveniently vanishes to care for his sick father. Alone and terrified, Amelia suspects everyone.

Then, when a photo arrives which proves she's being stalked, Amelia realizes she’s not being paranoid - the danger is very real.

Trapped in her flat, jumping at shadows, Amelia must uncover who's tormenting her—and why. Because in this game of psychological warfare, the people closest to her might be the most dangerous of all.

Trust no one. Question everything. Survive.

Pretty Little Lies - the gripping psychological thriller perfect for fans of Lucy Foley, Ruth Ware, and Freida McFadden.

What readers are saying about Pretty Little Lies:

“This thriller kept me on my toes as I tried to decide who was the victim and who was the villain. I was immediately immersed… edge-of-your-seat suspense. This book is original, entertaining, and a fun rollercoaster ride of intrigue.” -Booksprout Reviewer

“From the opening chapter the pacing is relentless and pulls me straight into a world thick with unease. The author masterfully builds a sense of paranoia that feels genuinely palpable and clings to me long after I’ve put the book down.” -Netgalley Reviewer

“…an absolutely addictive read! From the very first chapters, I found myself completely pulled into the story… gripping, suspenseful, and emotionally charged read that kept me hooked from start to finish.” -Netgalley Reviewer

“…get ready for an edge of your seat thriller! Constant drama, lies and danger… I had no idea who to trust! I was surprised when the twist came!!” -Booksprout Reviewer

“…my first venture into the world crafted by Jessica Huntley, but it certainly won't be my last. This gripping tale is a quick yet satisfying read that hooks you from the start, skillfully weaving a narrative that kept me on the edge of my seat.” -Netgalley Reviewer

“Every character feels suspicious, which keeps the story sharp and unpredictable. It’s a dark, claustrophobic read where you’re never quite sure who to trust—and that’s what makes it so compelling. A very good, twist-filled thriller with atmosphere and suspense to spare.” -Netgalley Reviewer

“…a twisty, addictive thriller that kept me guessing right up until the final reveal. Jessica Huntley does a great job blending small-town secrets, messy relationships, and the kind of creeping suspense that makes you read “just one more chapter.” -Netgalley Reviewer

Inside Story
Aug 15, 2026

"Pretty Little Lies" by Jessica Huntley is a gripping, dark, and twisty psychological thriller, filled with high suspense and centred on themes of stalking, paranoia, and betrayal. It transforms a seemingly perfect life into a nightmare in a matter of minutes.

I appreciated how the author introduces us to the main character, Amelia, a beauty therapist. We witness her dedication and strength as she moves from Portsmouth to Cambridge and builds her business from scratch. However, as Amelia begins to lose clients and feels constantly watched, we join her in trying to uncover the villain's identity, determine whom she can trust, and understand why all of this is happening. Soon, she realises she must "trust no one and question everything."

I loved how the author tests friendships and explores Amelia's relationship with her fiancé, Noah, who becomes distant and conveniently disappears after suggesting they might need to relocate again.

Jessica Huntley is one of my go-to authors; I don’t even bother reading the blurb because I know her books will always leave me satisfied!
