When Grace Kirkman’s husband disappears under suspicious circumstances, she plays the grieving wife with convincing ease—but behind her perfect smile lies a calculating mind. As the investigation unfolds, Lieutenant Peroski begins to suspect the crime scene was staged, the body moved, and the truth artfully concealed. Grace, a poised 1950s housewife with a dark streak, knows just how to deflect suspicion while maintaining her grip on control—and her secrets. With the case growing colder and Peroski’s gut telling him something’s off, a deadly game of cat and mouse emerges. Is Grace hiding a murder in plain sight? Grace Under Fire is a psychological domestic thriller of deception, survival, and the terrifying things we do in the name of love.

Set in the seemingly wholesome postwar suburbs, Grace Under Fire is a gripping psychological thriller that explores the sinister undercurrents of domestic life. With nods to Hitchcock’s Rope and Poe’s The Tell-Tale Heart, this novel lures readers into a world where guilt festers beneath the linoleum floors and secrets are buried with a smile. As the investigation spirals and Peroski closes in, Grace begins to unravel—but not in the way anyone expects. Because when it comes to survival, Grace has always known how to stay one step ahead. Even if it means crossing every line.

For fans of Gillian Flynn, Liane Moriarty, and Alex Michaelides, Grace Under Fire is a stylish, twist-filled noir that proves the most terrifying monsters can live behind the most beautiful façades.
