The Big Thrill Recommends: ORIGIN STORY by A.M. Adair

Recommended by Tracey Devlyn

Award-winning author A.M. Adair turns the serial killer narrative on its head in her gripping new release, ORIGIN STORY.

After a brutal attack by a gang, Elyse Tyson wakes from a monthlong coma in a prison infirmary, with no memory of why she’s there. Worse, the gang that assaulted her isn’t finished—they’ve marked her for death, and Elyse has no idea why.

Her only hope for survival is a doctor more interested in studying her traumatic brain injury than the deadly target on her back.

As Elyse watches a series of video confessions, she’s confronted with a horrifying revelation: the woman on the screen is not only a relentless psychopath—a serial killer—but a grieving mother. And that woman is her.

Fans of ’90s sci-fi will catch echoes of Total Recall in Adair’s expertly crafted thriller. ORIGIN STORY is a masterful, mind-bending ride that keeps readers questioning Elyse’s true identity until the very last page—and beyond. Adair redefines the serial killer genre, taking it to exhilarating new heights.
