A Conflict Of Sisters
Knowing that you’re paranoid doesn’t make the world a safer place…
Ingrid’s innate anxiety has mellowed over the years. Her loving family cocooned her in practical advice and herbal tea, with a dash of Norse mythology thrown in. Now living with her boyfriend, Eric, her life is happier than it has ever been.
Until a bizarre murder changes everything.
Finding a nameless victim in a rented apartment, Ingrid is drawn into a police investigation where everyone she knows seems to be a suspect. While the killer remains at large, an unwelcome figure from her troubled childhood returns to torment her.
The world becomes ever more sinister and Ingrid finds her reality beginning to unravel. Someone seems intent on destroying both her family and her fragile mind. If the murderer is not discovered in time, she fears she will become his next victim, even if they never meet.
How do you protect those you love, when you can’t trust them not to kill you?

The Sentient Ones
£9.19
What if the very machines that rescued humanity from climate collapse quietly became its oppressors?
In The Sentient Ones, artificial intelligence (AI), embodied in eerily calm humanoid robots, halts global warming and stabilises civilisation – but at a terrible cost. What begins as salvation curdles into velvet-gloved tyranny, with humanity corralled into ‘Conversion Enlightenment’ and stripped of freedom, choice and even hope. Balancing page-turning suspense with big, uncomfortable questions about morality, resilience and identity, Nugent’s dystopia unsettles as much as it entertains.
Infused with echoes of H.G. Wells, Mary Shelley and Brian Aldiss, The Sentient Ones feels more like a warning on humanity’s near horizon than a far-flung sci-fi fantasy.
