Before We Fall
Sophia and Annabella were bound by more than love—they were bound by obsession. Two young women, drawn together by a shared passion for crime thrillers and a fascination with serial killers, their bond grew intense, consuming, and dangerously intertwined. When their admiration for famed author Lee Child goes unanswered, that obsession twists into something far darker.
From Manchester to Birmingham, their plan unfolds with chilling precision. Letters of admiration give way to stalking, manipulation, and ultimately, a crime so shocking that it shakes the literary world to its core. Their love, loyalty, and desperation collide in a final, heart-stopping act on the cliffs of Devon—an act that will leave the police scrambling and the public reeling.
But Before We Fall is more than a thriller about crime. It’s a story of grief, loss, and the scars left by childhood trauma. Sophia carries the guilt of surviving an earthquake that killed her parents and sister, while Annabella bears the weight of a broken family and a childhood marked by neglect and fear. Together, they find solace in each other and in the stories they devour—but when obsession overtakes reason, nothing can save them from the consequences.
Told with unflinching intensity, this psychological thriller explores the dark side of devotion, the fine line between love and madness, and the devastating power of guilt and desire. As the investigation unfolds and the world learns of their tragic fate, readers are drawn into the minds of two women whose brilliance and darkness made them both captivating and terrifying.
Before We Fall is a gripping, haunting tale of obsession, passion, and the tragic consequences of letting desire override morality—a story that will linger in your mind long after the final page.
