One night in the woods
A party gone wrong
A body discovered at sunrise
He murdered her at the folly on their wedding day, left her body for the crows. They say she haunts the woods now, a girl in a white dress …
Local police detective Ben Chase is assigned to the murder investigation, but when the victim is identified as a student from his daughter's school, tensions rise.
Was she the victim of a party prank gone wrong, or does the girl’s death represent something more sinister and ritualistic? As the investigation unfolds and the noose tightens around Chase’s own family, the only thing anyone can be sure of is that no one is safe until this violent killer is caught…
A tense, clever and claustrophobic thriller where no one is who they seem and the danger lies just out of sight.
‘Evocative and haunting, One Dark Night delves into the complexities of human nature and relationships. This gothic thriller had me on edge through its clever twists and turns, and kept me reading late into the night to the spine-chilling climax.’ Petronella McGovern
‘Dark and twisty small-town noir at its very best—I couldn't look away!’ Pip Drysdale
‘Hannah Richell is the new master of the atmospheric thriller. This story is a fast-burn that will have you suspecting every single character, before Richell delivers a satisfying “ta-da” moment with twist upon twist. An eery, suspenseful read with a cast of characters you’ll both love and hate, and an ending that will leave your jaw on the floor!’ Ali Lowe
Richell has created a compelling new raft of authentic characters who not only face heart-pounding danger, but very relatable societal issues. I adored DS Ben Chase and school counsellor Rachel Dean. Wouldn’t mind seeing them in future crime reads!’ Michelle Prak
‘This compulsive, eerie and suspenseful thriller kept me reading well into the night! Richell is the master of absorbing, atmospheric tales with complex characters who stay with you long after you turn the final page and One Dark Night is her best yet!’ Rae Cairns
