Tony Parsons’ ten standalone novels span over four decades, from his debut Platinum Logic in 1979 to Who She Was in 2023. The earlier novels — The Family Way, One for My Baby, Stories We Could Tell — explore relationships and modern British life in the tradition of his Harry Silver books.

His more recent standalones have shifted toward domestic thrillers. Your Neighbour’s Wife (2021), The People Next Door (2022), and Who She Was (2023) all probe the secrets that lurk behind ordinary-seeming lives, reflecting Parsons’ move from literary fiction toward the crime and suspense territory of his Max Wolfe series.
