About the Author
Alice Feeney is a New York Times bestselling author who has earned the title 'Queen of Twists' for her gripping and unpredictable psychological thrillers. Known for her atmospheric settings, unreliable narrators, and shocking plot developments, Feeney’s work has redefined the modern mystery genre. Her debut novel, 'Sometimes I Lie' (2017), became an international bestseller, establishing her hallmark style of blending dark domestic suspense with profound psychological insight. Before her meteoric rise in the literary world, Feeney spent fifteen years as a producer and journalist at the BBC, an experience that honed her investigative instincts and her ability to craft tight, impactful narratives.
Feeney’s subsequent releases, including 'I Know Who You Are' (2019), 'His & Hers' (2020), and 'Rock Paper Scissors' (2021), have consistently topped bestseller lists and earned her a dedicated global following. Her novels often explore the damaging effects of buried secrets, the fragility of identity, and the ways in which the past relentlessly haunts the present. Whether she is exploring a marriage in crisis in the remote Scottish Highlands or a dysfunctional family reunion on a tidal island in Cornwall, Feeney’s writing is celebrated for its ability to keep readers guessing until the very last page. Her latest hits, 'Daisy Darker' (2022) and 'Good Bad Girl' (2023), continue this legacy of dark, twisty storytelling.
Her impact extensions beyond the page include major screen adaptations. 'His & Hers' was adapted into a major Netflix series starring Tessa Thompson, and 'Sometimes I Lie' and 'Rock Paper Scissors' are both in development as major television projects. A graduate of the prestigious Faber Academy writing course, Feeney lives in the Devon countryside with her family. Her work has been translated into over thirty languages, making her one of the most successful and influential thriller writers of her generation. She continues to be a dominant force in the genre, crafting stories that are as intellectually stimulating as they are emotionally resonant, and always delivering the unexpected.
