Rock Paper Scissors: The gripping, twisty psychological suspense thriller and instant New York Times bestseller (Paperback)

Our summary description

As Independent Scottish booksellers, we write all of our descriptions personally, we hope you enjoy this one.

Adam and Amelia have been married for ten years. They arrive in the Scottish Highlands to mark the anniversary, drawn to the quiet of a remote place where there are few witnesses and little interruption.

The landscape offers space to reflect, but also room for doubt. As the weekend unfolds, small details begin to feel unstable, and each of them becomes newly aware of what they know, and what has never quite been said. The intimacy they share is threaded with omissions, habits of silence built over time.

Every marriage contains its private adjustments, its half truths and careful accommodations. For Adam and Amelia, those compromises have begun to harden into something more dangerous. The question of trust, once assumed, becomes uncertain.

This is a psychological thriller attentive to the fragile balance between closeness and concealment, and to the way long shared lives can still hold rooms that remain locked.
