The standalone novels of J.S. Monroe / Jon Stock span his entire career, from The Riot Act in 1997 to No Place to Hide in 2023. The earlier books, published under Jon Stock, include The Riot Act and The Cardamom Club, while the J.S. Monroe psychological thrillers begin with Find Me in 2017.
The Monroe-era books are characterized by unreliable narrators and identity-driven plots. Forget My Name follows a woman who shows up at a stranger’s door with no memory of who she is, and The Other You asks what happens when you realize your partner may be someone else entirely. These standalones have earned Monroe a reputation as one of Britain’s more inventive thriller writers.
