Alice thought postpartum depression was her greatest challenge—until she found her husband standing over a dead woman. Motherhood was supposed to bring Alice joy. Instead, it brought isolation, overwhelming guilt, and the creeping fear that she might harm her baby. Trapped in a penthouse with her baby, Ellie, while her husband Max works long hours, Alice feels like she’s losing her grip on reality. Then one sleepless night, she finds Max with a dead woman in their living room. She calls the police. But they can’t find a body. They can’t find her baby, either. And Alice’s husband now insists that Ellie never existed. That the baby is a figment of Alice’s imagination. Alice knows she’s not crazy. Ellie is real. Alive. Her husband is lying. But why? And where has her baby gone? From best-selling authors Nolon King and Lauren Street, Postpartum is a standalone psychological thriller that’s perfect for fans of Freida McFadden and Nicola Sanders.

Nolon King writes smart psychological thrillers designed to leave you on the edge of your seat. His stories are dark, twisty, and often decidedly close to home. He’s not afraid to explore the darker side of human nature through stories featuring families torn apart by secrets and lies. If you enjoy reading authors like Darcey Bell and Harlan Coban, movies like A Simple Favor and The Hand That Rocks the Cradle, or shows like Ozark and Dead to Me, you’ll love Nolon King. When not writing you will find Nolon drinking black coffee and observing humans in their natural habitats.
