DARK GAMES AND TWISTED MINDS: ELLIE MARNEY’S THRILLING "NONE SHALL SLEEP" SERIES

-
Ever felt the spine-tingling chill of walking through a haunted house alone at midnight? Or the adrenaline rush from a nail-biting cliffhanger in your favorite thriller series? Welcome to the world of Ellie Marney’s None Shall Sleep series—a gripping dive into the dark recesses of the criminal mind, wrapped in the eerie allure of 1980s psychological horror.

Meet the Mastermind Behind the Thrill

Ellie Marney isn’t just a New York Times bestselling author; she’s a maestro of spine-chilling mysteries. From mortuary research to hobnobbing with autopsy specialists, Ellie’s forays into the macabre make her books pulse with authenticity. You might recognize her from the Every series or the riveting Circus Hearts novels. Now, she’s back, dialing up the dread with None Shall Sleep and its electrifying sequel Some Shall Break.

A Terrifying Team-Up: None Shall Sleep
The year is 1982. Reagan's in the White House, MTV is airing music videos, and the FBI is desperate. Enter Emma Lewis, a survivor of serial killer Daniel Huxton, and Travis Bell, a US Marshal candidate with a personal vendetta against serial killers. These teens aren’t just working the case—they’re living it.

Recruited by the FBI to crack open the minds of juvenile killers, Emma and Travis dive into a world where every interview could be their last. Their insights are crucial, but when a killer targeting teenagers strikes, the duo faces a terrifying twist: to catch a killer, they need to dance with the devil himself, Simon Gutmunsson, a young sociopath who has more than a few tricks up his sleeve.

Simon’s not just a chess master; he’s playing 3D chess with Emma’s psyche. As Emma becomes the reluctant go-between for Simon and the FBI, the tension escalates faster than you can say “manipulation.”

The Sequel Surge: Some Shall Break
Think you’re safe after the first book’s heart-pounding climax? Think again. In Some Shall Break, Emma and Travis are back, albeit with a few more scars. Emma’s shunned Quantico, but when an eerily familiar case resurfaces, she’s thrust back into the fold. And guess who’s still lurking in the shadows? Yep, Simon’s back, with his secrets and sinister games.

This time, Emma isn’t just dealing with the past; she’s battling a copycat killer who’s channeling Daniel Huxton’s ghost. Travis teams up with Simon’s twin, Kristin, to send a dire warning: Emma’s next. It’s a deadly race against time, and the only way out might be diving deeper into the darkness they hoped to leave behind.

Why Dive In?

For readers who crave more than just a whodunit, Marney’s series offers a labyrinth of psychological twists. It’s not just about catching killers; it’s about understanding them, all while surviving their mind games. Think Mindhunter meets Silence of the Lambs with a dash of youthful grit and 1980s flair.

Marney’s writing is sharp, her characters are complex, and the tension? It’s wound so tight it might just snap. Perfect for anyone who enjoys feeling the heart-pounding dread of living vicariously through protagonists walking the razor’s edge between life and death.

So, if you’re ready to lose some sleep and gain a few gray hairs, crack open None Shall Sleep and Some Shall Break. Just remember to keep the lights on and maybe, just maybe, double-check those locks. After all, you never know what’s lurking in the dark…
