The Watcher

“Pashley is an excellent prose stylist and a compelling storyteller, but the triumph of this novel, The Watcher, is her ability to create beautifully drawn characters.”—Lambda Literary “A solid start to this new series … Well placed twists and turns keep the reader engaged.”—Red Carpet Crash“Pashley’s seamless, yet meticulous writing pulls the reader into the bleak world of rural upstate New York … Atmospheric and dark, yet emotionally compelling, The Watcher is simply phenomenal on all counts. Jennifer Pashley is nothing short of a rising star.”—Wendy Walker, bestselling author of All is Not Forgotten and Emma in the Night“The Watcher is a taut literary thriller about desperation, desire, and what people are capable of when they’ve got nothing left to lose. Pashley’s masterful prose makes your heart ache and your pulse pound for every single character populating this chilly, unforgiving—and unforgettable—world.” —Layne Fargo, author of Temper“The characters in The Watcher will rip your heart out … There is hope at the heart of this novel, and also redemption and justice. You’ll find yourself reading faster to discover what happens next and slowing down to wallow in the beautiful prose. Pashley writes about the people on the fringes of society with clear-eyed compassion and grace. It’s a gift.” —Tiffany Quay Tyson, award-winning author of The Past is Never“Do not miss this dark and gorgeously told mystery that combines both the literary and noir. I was completely enthralled … You will not be able to turn away from The Watcher.” —Vanessa Lillie, Amazon bestselling author of Little Voices and For the Best
