Rachel Wolf‘s latest ‘technicolour thriller’ (Jo Furniss), Sun Trap, has been featured in The Bookseller‘s May fiction previews.

Subscribers can find the full list of May 2025 previews here.

In the preview, Bookseller expert Lauren Brown wrote:

‘On a plane to Abu Dhabi, actress Ellie overhears something she shouldn’t: two people planning a murder. Not wanting to ruin her big break, she stays quiet, but then ten members of the crew becomes nine.’

BE CAREFUL
Ellie has wanted to be an actor since she was a child so, when a role in a blockbuster film presents itself, she grabs it.

WHAT YOU
On the plane to location in Abu Dhabi, Ellie overhears something she shouldn’t—two people discussing their plans to murder someone.

WISH FOR
Unsure if what she heard was even real, and not wanting to ruin her big break, Ellie remains quiet. Then ten members of the crew become nine…

Ellie needs to be careful—it’s more than just her career on the line.

Because she isn’t who she says she is.
And liars are always the prime suspect.

Rachel Wolf’s Sun Trap will be out in May; pre-order your copy here, or, better, via your local bookshop or Bookshop.org.
