The Outlier

An audaciously twisty psychological thriller in which finding the killer is only one of two mysteries its anti-heroine, Cate Winter, tries to unravel. The other: when pushed to extremes, what is she herself capable of?

“An of-the-moment, character-rich psychological thriller with a Bond-worthy villain that builds to a stunning conclusion.”

-Linwood Barclay, #1 internationally bestselling author

“A propulsive thriller with a wonderfully complicated heroine. I devoured it.”

- Kelley Armstrong, New York Times bestselling author of the Rockton thrillers

"Eaves skillfully infuses complex ecological and moral issues into a plot that never forgets to thrill."

-Publishers Weekly Starred Review
