The Exes

Brought to you by Penguin. Unbearably tense and unmissably twisty, this is the outstanding debut suspense novel from the most exciting new voice in thriller writing, Leodora Darlington Natalie chose James carefully, because he's different from all the men she'd loved before. Calm. Competent. Kind. And there are three very good reasons she needs to be so careful. Their names are Marc, Luca and George. Natalie prefers not to think about what they did to her. Let alone what she had to do to them. Except now, on a night they are meant to be celebrating how happy they are together, Natalie and James are lying in separate bedrooms. She is asking herself how she could have been foolish enough to let yet another man hurt her like this. Slowly, Natalie realises she’s already holding a knife. But she's not going to do anything with it. She’s not. Not again. 'An excellent read - entertaining, intriguing and exciting. Bravo!' LIZ NUGENT 'Set to be a breakout thriller big name with plot that constantly wrong-foots you’ STYLIST Includes an author letter, read by Leodora Darlington. © Leodora Darlington 2026 (P) Penguin Audio 2026
