The Sunday Times Crime Club newsletter has featured A. S. Hatch‘s This Little Dark Place.

“Ruby was in jail, and started writing to Dan; Dan’s now in jail and is writing to Lucy. In the extended letter that forms this compelling psychological thriller, we find out what happened — a terrifyingly plausible story of how everyday failures of empathy, compassion and, most of all, trust, can have fatal consequences.”

The paper also shared an exclusive preview of the novel’s first chapter, which you can read here.
