THE RUSH (2023)

Praise for The Rush
‘Michelle Prak doesn’t give you a minute to catch your breath on this Australian outback rollercoaster. Compelling and explosive.’
Hayley Scrivenor, author of Dirt Town
‘Buckle up. Prak’s about to take you on the ride of your life.’
Candice Fox, New York Times bestselling author
‘Tense, mysterious and unsettling, The Rush makes a nightmare out of the Australian landscape and will have you tearing through pages desperate to see how these threads come together―and who will survive when they do.’
Gabriel Bergmoser, author of The Hunted
‘Prepare to be terrified! A real rollercoaster of a debut.’
Nicci French, author of The Favour
BARREN CAPE (Coming April 2025)
'Edgy, gripping and full of menace' Hannah Richell
An abandoned resort seems the perfect place to hide, but is Barren Cape a refuge or a trap?
Former housemates Mac and Erika are homeless.
Well, Erika is fine, she just has to live with her parents until she can find another rental. Mac's situation is much worse – family isn't an option and she's surfing the couches of her increasingly exasperated friends.
Driving around one lonely afternoon, Mac discovers Barren Cape. Once destined to be a luxury escape, now it's just wire fence and gray cement.
It's stark, but quiet. There's no harm in staying a little while…
From the bestselling author of The Rush comes a spine-chilling thriller about what happens when people are pushed to the edge and forced to make unthinkable choices.
‘Taut, terrifying and timely’ B.M. Carroll
‘Prak’s books keep you reading long into the night’ Vikki Petraitis
