Attention thriller fans! Freida McFadden's new thriller will be released in German in March - you can pre-order it here.
When it comes to gripping psychological thrillers, no one can ignore Freida McFadden. Because since her The Housemaid series was translated into German (“If she knew„, „She can hear you" and "She will find you“order from Thalia*), it is also conquering the bestseller lists in this country.
If, like me, you have literally devoured her books, then you are probably eagerly waiting for more. And that's coming soon: in 2025, three more thrillers by Freida McFadden will be translated into German. “The colleague” starts in March.
What is “The Colleague” about?
Blurb: “Dawn Schiff is an outsider in the office. She never says the right thing. She has no friends. But she is at her place at the company where she works as an accountant at 8:45 a.m. sharp every morning. Until one morning she doesn't show up. Dawn's colleague Natalie Farrell is surprised. Then she gets an anonymous call and drives to Dawn's apartment. Before she knows it, she finds herself in a perfidious game of cat and mouse and soon can no longer tell who the real victim is. Only one thing seems clear: someone must have hated Dawn so much that he killed her.”
Sounds like another nerve-wracking journey full of twists and turns, right?
“The Colleague” will be published on March 28, 2025, with a colored book cut in the first edition. So it's worth pre-ordering.
Can't wait until March?
Until then, grab one of McFadden's English books. My personal recommendation: “Never Lie” (is available here at Thalia*).
It's about a newly married couple who are stuck viewing a house because of a snowstorm. While they wait for the weather to get better, they discover clues to dark secrets in the house and find themselves in danger - because they don't seem to be alone in the actually abandoned house...
I couldn't put the book down and devoured it in two days. Thanks to its pleasantly simple writing style, “Never Lie” is also something for you if you don’t read English very often.
