Overview

Kate Mulvaney has spent her life running - from a tragic past, dangerous secrets, and the truth about who she really is. Growing up in a house filled with secrets and shadows on the rugged West Coast of Ireland, Kate's only refuge was her beloved Aunt Iris, who instilled in her a deep appreciation for precious jewels - their beauty, their history, their power. But after her aunt's death, Kate is left alone with a predatory uncle. A violent confrontation ends with her uncle at the bottom of the stairs, and at sixteen, believing she has committed murder, Kate flees. With a bag of stolen cash and jewellery, she reinvents herself in London. But Kate is no ordinary runaway - she's sharp, resourceful, and always two steps ahead. Her collection of jewels grows with every new city, a shimmering reminder of the life she's building - and the past she's desperate to forget. From the neon-lit streets of London to the sun-drenched shores of Trinidad and Tobago, then onto the tropical paradise of Hawaii and the bustling cityscape of Sydney, Kate slips in and out of identities, amassing wealth, diamonds, and secrets along the way. But no matter where she goes, shadows from her past follow. A mysterious tracker has been hunting her across the globe - first watching, then closing in. And when fate finally forces Kate to return to Ireland, she must confront the shocking truth about her family, her past, and the man chasing her. A gripping tale of survival, deception, and destiny, Thirdplace Wins is perfect for fans of psychological thrillers and literary suspense. If you loved Death of a Foreign Gentleman by Steven Carroll, The Summer Party by Rebecca Heath, or Dreaming in French by Vanessa McCausland, this book will keep you hooked until the final page.
