New Book From Heleen Kist

Published on 23rd June 2022, this highly original thriller brings two unfortunate but prevalent themes to the fore – the mental health struggles and insidious substance misuse amongst those in the medical profession; and the pressure women are under as part of the ‘sandwich’ generation, juggling work, home, caring for aging parents and being the best possible parent. 

Award-winning from the outset of her writing career, the author delivers a fast-paced, authentic and relatable thriller that captures the essence and underbelly of her adopted hometown, Glasgow, to a tee. And the meticulous character development of both her protagonist dentist and the drug dealing gang she gets entangled with, make What I Hid From You not only hard to put down, but appealing to both men and women.
