True Crime Story by Joseph Knox

THE #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER!

What if the most gripping true crime story you've ever read... was a complete fabrication?

True Crime Story by Joseph Knox is a masterfully twisted, internationally bestselling thriller that reads like a real cold case--because it's designed to. Told through interviews, emails, and transcripts, this jaw-droppingly authentic narrative blurs the line between fiction and reality so convincingly that readers routinely stop to Google: Did this really happen?

In 2011, university student Zoe Nolan vanished without a trace. No national headlines. No justice. No closure. Years later, struggling writer Evelyn Mitchell begins her own investigation--interviewing Zoe's friends, family, and witnesses, and sending her findings to crime author Joseph Knox. But something in Evelyn's story feels wrong.

As Knox digs deeper, a darker narrative emerges about the stories we shape, the truths we manipulate, and our uneasy obsession with real-world tragedy.

Perfect for fans of Only Murders in the Building and true crime documentaries, this genre-bending thriller delivers a hypnotic blend of cold case mystery, unreliable narration, and true crime meta-commentary that will leave you questioning every page.

Praise for True Crime Story:

"Knox has created a twisty, turny thriller that cuts through the heart of the modern true crime fascination, all while keeping us enraptured by it." -- BuzzFeed

"True Crime Story, by turns horrific and hilarious, is scandalously entertaining." -- The Times (UK)

"This is one of the most engaging cold-case novels I have read." -- Literary Review (UK)

JOSEPH KNOX was born and raised in and around Stoke and Manchester, where he worked in bars and bookshops before moving to London. He runs, writes, and reads compulsively. The Smiling Man is the follow-up to his acclaimed and bestselling debut, Sirens.
