Summer Reads: The 10 best new thriller books

By Diane Shipley

 
Anything with Tiffany's in the title is attention-grabbing all on its own, but the new bestseller by thriller-meister James Patterson (written with former children's author Gabrielle Charbonnet) has a tantalising storyline, too. When Jane Margaux was younger, she was a lonely child whose only ally was her imaginary friend, a thirty-something George Clooney-esque man called Michael, who was handsome, suave, funny and smart. But as Jane grows up, she forgets all about Michael, until one day, she meets him… for real. Could he possibly be her soul mate, and if so, how? With its mix of intrigue and romance and echoes of The Time Traveller's Wife, it's no surprise this book has already become a huge hit.

Sundays At Tiffany's by James Patterson and Gabrielle Charbonnet, £7.99 from Amazon.co.uk
