Anna is on the brink of losing it all when she is handed the career opportunity of a lifetime - working as a ghostwriter for charismatic neuroscientist Nate. Nate's work at the mysterious Pain Laboratory could transform millions of lives, but his research is overshadowed by rumours surrounding the shocking death of his wife Eva. As Anna writes Nate's story, she finds herself obsessed with Eva, a former patient of Nate's who was unable to experience pain but found joy in inflicting it. As she strips away the secrets of their toxic marriage she makes a shocking discovery. And writing the truth will have deadly consequences . . .

YOU CAN'T HURT ME is your next thriller obsession for readers who enjoyed AJ Finn's THE WOMAN IN THE WINDOW, JP Delaney's THE GIRL BEFORE and Alex Michaelides THE SILENT PATIENT.

MEDIA REVIEWS

An assured debut that is as fresh and exciting as it is dark. Deft handling of sensitive subject matter: sex, power and control - Lisa Ballantyne

A slow-burn, atmospheric and literary thriller full of menace and secrets with some killer twists - Catherine Cooper

An exceptional debut: tense, taut and thrillingly original. Emma Cook writes beautifully - Sharon Bolton

This is a psychological thriller of the classier variety: notably well written, and tight with dark and disturbing tension. I was hooked - Joanna Briscoe

Emma Cook's tightly woven thriller proves that the worst pain isn't caused by physical wounds, but by the emotional harm we inflict on one another - Tara Laskowski

“A good premise but . . .”

You Can’t Hurt Me by Emma Cook had a good premise, but the story did not live up to it. I tried, but I was unable to get into the story. The writing did not pull me in. I found the writing style to be awkward. The... More
