Colette McBeth is a British author who spent more than ten years as a BBC television journalist before turning to fiction. Her four standalone novels are psychological thrillers built around relationships that have gone wrong, with secrets and lies driving the tension rather than conventional crime plots.

Her debut, Precious Thing (2013), follows two friends whose intense bond turns destructive. The Life I Left Behind (2015) revisits an attack from two perspectives years apart. An Act of Silence (2018) and Call Me a Liar (2019) continue her interest in characters whose carefully constructed lives start to crack under pressure.
