JOEL HAMES

A former lawyer and Londoner in exile, Joel Hames lives in rural Lancashire with his wife, two daughters and one springer spaniel.

His works of fiction include the bestselling Sam Williams trilogy Dead North, No One Will Hear and The Cold Years.

When not writing or spending time with his family, Joel likes to eat, cook, play the piano, run, solve cryptic crosswords, and make up excuses to avoid walking the dog. There’s the MMA thing, too, but he doesn’t like to show off.

Joel's gripping psychological thriller was published by SpellBound Books in January 2021.

We are huge fans of Joel's work here at SpellBound and are thrilled to welcome him to our team.

SHE’S WATCHING YOU, 

BUT WHO’S WATCHING HER?


From the bestselling author of Dead North, a tense, claustrophobic psychological thriller perfect for fans of Lucy Foley, Claire McGowan and Clare Mackintosh.

Meet Polly.
Meet Emily.
Meet Belinda.

They're all me.

My name is Lisa and I’m an identity thief. If I’m not inside your system stealing your money, I’ve probably already stolen it. I’m your friend. I’m your enemy. I’m in control.

Only now, the tables have been turned. I’m in danger. My son is in danger. And I don’t know where that danger’s coming from.

NOBODY CAN BE TRUSTED.
