The Hunter's Daughter: A Novel BY Nicola Solvinic

Featured on the TODAY show as “the best thriller,” The Devil’s Daughter is a chilling debut that delves into the dark side of a seemingly good cop’s life. Anna Koray has carefully built a new identity far from her father’s notorious legacy. As a respected sheriff’s lieutenant, she leads a routine life in a rural county, her traumatic past buried under layers of repressed memory due to a controversial hypnosis treatment.

Her world shatters when she is forced to kill a man in the line of duty, triggering a return of suppressed memories. Anna starts dreaming of her father—a notorious serial killer—surrounded by his macabre offerings to a forest god, with blood-stained hands and flower-decked corpses. The past she thought was locked away resurfaces, revealing disturbing connections between her father’s crimes and a new killer who is mimicking his grisly methods.

As Anna investigates, she is drawn into a nightmarish game of cat and mouse with the new killer, who seems to know her darkest secret. Torn between her duty and the fear of her past being exposed, Anna must confront her father’s shadow. The hunt through the eerie forest blurs the line between hunter and hunted, challenging Anna’s grip on reality and her identity.

In The Devil’s Daughter, the tension mounts as Anna races against time, struggling to unmask the killer while grappling with her own demons. This atmospheric thriller explores themes of identity, darkness, and redemption, making it a gripping read for fans of psychological suspense.
