Everyone has secrets. They already know yours...

In the 21st century, information is king. But computers can be hacked, files can be broken into – so a unique government initiative has been born. Five ordinary people have been selected to become the latest weapon in thwarting cyberterrorism: transformed by a revolutionary medical procedure, they have become the ultimate keepers of secrets.

The country's most classified information has been taken offline and turned into genetic code implanted inside their heads. Together, the five know every secret – the truth behind every government lie, conspiracy theory and cover up.

But somebody has discovered who the secret keepers are. And one by one, they are being hunted down...

'One of the most exciting, original thriller writers out there. I never miss one of his books' SIMON KERNICK

John Marrs

John Marrs is the British author whose books grip readers by the throat and never let go. Known for his psychological thrillers and speculative fiction, he explores the unpredictable intersection of technology, ethics, and the human psyche. His narratives are populated by flawed characters navigating the dangerous waters of modern life, with the technology meant to serve us often becoming our greatest adversary.

Before finding his voice as a novelist, Marrs spent over two decades as a freelance journalist, writing for prominent publications like The Guardian, Empire, and HuffPost. This experience in storytelling—where every word counts and every detail matters—shaped his tight, suspenseful prose that keeps readers on the edge of their seats. His debut novel, When You Disappeared (originally The Wronged Sons), laid the foundation for his later work, setting the stage for the twist-filled narratives that have become his signature.

However, it was The One, a speculative thriller about a DNA test that promises to match you with your perfect partner, that truly catapulted him into the spotlight. This book not only became a #1 bestseller but also sparked the imagination of viewers worldwide with its Netflix adaptation. Marrs' exploration of love, fate, and the potentially dangerous outcomes of technology is a recurring theme in his works, including The Passengers, What Lies Between Us, and The Minders. Each novel is a deep dive into human desires and the shadows lurking behind them.

Marrs’ books have been translated into numerous languages, reaching an international audience captivated by his clever plots and complex characters. His work is not just about keeping you guessing—it’s about challenging you to think, to question what’s real, and to ponder how much control we truly have over our own lives.

His novel, You Killed Me First, promises to continue his tradition of exploring the darker side of human nature with a fresh, captivating perspective. Marrs' books are a testament to his ability to blend tension, character-driven narratives, and thought-provoking questions about the future of humanity. Whether you’re new to his work or a longtime fan, one thing is clear: John Marrs knows how to tell a story that stays with you long after the final page is turned.
