Overview:
Dive into two masterfully crafted psychological thrillers from JP Delaney, now together in this 2-book collection. The New Wife (paperback, 352 pages) arrives in 2024 from Quercus, sending readers to sun-soaked Mallorca where a dilapidated farmhouse becomes the stage for hidden motives and dangerous games. My Darling Daughter (paperback, 416 pages) follows in 2025, a taut, socially charged thriller about adoption, secrets, and the perilous line between protection and manipulation. Both novels showcase Delaney’s knack for precise prose, high-stakes tension, and twist-heavy plotting that keeps you guessing right up to the final page. This book collection is ideal for fans of contemporary domestic noir and readers who crave immersive, stand-alone thrillers with strong sense of place and memorable, morally complex characters. Perfect for weekend binge-reading or gifting to fellow suspense lovers, these two standalone tales form a cohesive, highly replayable reading experience within a single, elegant paperback set.

What This Collection Covers:
Across these two standalone thrillers, Delaney unpacks how ordinary lives can fracture under pressure—from inheritance disputes and new domestic arrangements in a sunlit Mediterranean villa to the dark undercurrents of a past connected by adoption and secrecy. The New Wife uses a pristine holiday-home fantasy as a cover for manipulation, as occupants, investigators, and relatives collide in a race to control the narrative. My Darling Daughter shifts the focus to motherhood, memory, and the consequences of keeping or revealing secrets in a modern, connected world. Together, the collection explores trust, power dynamics, and the price of safeguarding loved ones—delivered with sharp, cinematic pacing and tightly wound twists that reward close reading and thoughtful discussion.

Book-by-Book Guide:
The New Wife
Finn Hensen and his sister Jess travel to Mallorca to claim their inheritance—a once-impressive farmhouse now occupied and meticulously renovated by Ruensa and her daughter, Roze. As Finn confronts the unexpected makeover and a web of questions about his father’s death, the delicate balance between truth and deception tilts. The Spanish authorities’ inquiries add pressure, and it becomes increasingly unclear who truly holds the reins of power. Delaney sustains a claustrophobic atmosphere where every conversation hints at deeper motives, and loyalties shift as danger closes in. This installation of the set delivers a propulsive, morally charged thriller with a chilling sense of place and an ending that redefines what you believed about inheritance, control, and trust.

My Darling Daughter
Susie Jukes is drawn into a web when Anna, the daughter she placed for adoption years earlier, makes contact via social media. Meeting in person unlocks a disturbing dynamic: Anna’s home life feels unstable, and her adoptive parents react with protectiveness and suspicion. As Susie and her husband Gabe become entangled in Anna’s precarious world, questions arise about Anna’s motivations and the shadows of Susie’s own past. Delaney keeps the suspense tight by weaving past trauma with present danger, forcing readers to reevaluate who’s vulnerable and who’s willing to cross lines to protect a secret. The result is a compulsive, twist-filled narrative that lingers in the mind long after the final page.
