In the shadowed corners of literary Annapolis, a killer is transforming murder into art.

When the body of a young bartender is discovered in the prestigious Hamilton Grand Hotel-artfully arranged in a pose mirroring a scene from bestselling author Jonathan Cain's dark psychological thriller-Detective Elliot Warren finds himself drawn into a labyrinth of literary clues and calculated misdirection.

As the body count rises, each victim positioned with the same meticulous care, Warren uncovers disturbing connections between Cain and the murdered men. But the investigation takes an unexpected turn when Adrian Locke-a provocative artist with her own fascination for the boundaries between beauty and violence-enters Cain's life.

What begins as a manhunt for a serial killer evolves into something far more complex: a psychological chess match between detective and suspects, where evidence itself becomes a form of artistic expression, and the line between hunter and prey blurs beyond recognition.

When Warren himself disappears while pursuing a lead, his partner Detective Sophia Reyes must navigate a web of manipulated evidence, hidden connections, and elaborate performances to uncover the truth-before she becomes the next subject in a killer's masterpiece.

Suspense of Disbelief is a sophisticated psychological thriller that explores the darkest intersections of creativity and violence, challenging readers to question where art ends and monstrosity begins. With intricate plotting, complex psychological portraits, and a relentless pursuit of uncomfortable truths, this novel will captivate fans of Gillian Flynn, Thomas Harris, and Tana French.

Some stories are written in blood. Some performances end in death. And some art is worth killing for.
