FROM THE MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR

All Liam ever wanted was to help me reach my full potential. And he always knew what was best. Until the day he pushed me far beyond my limits, and I walked out of our flat and away from our relationship to good.

Now, two years on, I am stronger, fitter, healthier than ever before. And then I see him – Liam – those green eyes, those stirring muscles. Something inside me flips. I want revenge, and I’m willing to do almost anything to get it.

I hold the power now.

It’s Liam’s turn to sweat.

'An inspired set-up. A clever dynamic that paves the way for a cat-and-mouse thriller. Propulsive.' SUNDAY TIMES

'A maze-like game of revenge. Unsettling. Blends a critique of wellness culture with a slow-burn feminist thriller.' OBSERVER

'If you spend all of January trying to avoid diet culture, then you need to read this book.' COSMOPOLITAN

Critic reviews

Taut, compulsive, and unsettling ... SWEAT had me holding my breath until the final, brilliant end
Sweat will keep you guessing until the very last page…
Will have you glued to the story through every twist and turn. I absolutely loved it!
Part pulsing psychological thriller, part subversive meditation on the way we use (and abuse) our bodies, part noir-ish twisted revenge fantasy, SWEAT is like nothing I’ve ever read before. So addictive it made me miss a tube stop, so unsettling it made me think twice about going to the gym!
An inspired set-up. A clever dynamic that paves the way for a cat-and-mouse thriller. Propulsive
A maze-like game of revenge. Unsettling. Blends a critique of wellness culture with a slow-burn feminist thriller
Emma Healey's tale of control and revenge will have you hooked till the final page (The Style List)
If you spend all of January trying to avoid diet culture, then you need to read this book
A modern thriller about revenge, self-discipline, and control (Eva Wiseman)
Taut and twisty ... claustrophobic psychological tale ... becomes a slow-burn revenge thriller. Takes full advantage of shifting perspectives and disorientating power dynamics as acts of retribution escalate
