Eleanor Blackwood and her daughter, Clara, are the picture of elegance-graceful, refined, and admired from afar. But their polished facade conceals something far more sinister: a bond forged in manipulation, cruelty, and a shared obsession with control. Behind the gates of Blackwood Manor, beauty and brutality move in perfect synchrony. When a series of disappearances begins to unsettle the city, Detective Miles Corbin sees the chilling precision others overlook. Drawn into a maze of illusions and half-truths, he finds himself pitted against adversaries who anticipate every move and conceal every trace. The deeper he digs, the clearer it becomes: this is no ordinary investigation, but a confrontation with predators who view fear as art and human lives as expendable. Taut, atmospheric, and disturbingly intimate, Midnight Rush is a psychological thriller that peers into the darkest corners of the human mind. With each turn of the page, it challenges the boundaries between justice and vengeance, truth and deception, hunter and hunted. For readers of Gillian Flynn, Karin Slaughter, and Alex Michaelides, this is a story of elegance cloaking monstrosity-and a reminder that the most dangerous masks are the ones worn so well.
