Synopsis

Did she leave, or was she taken?

The day Adam Dunne's girlfriend, Sarah, fails to return from a Barcelona business trip, his perfect life begins to fall apart. Days later, the arrival of her passport and a note that reads 'I'm sorry - S' sets off real alarm bells. He vows to do whatever it takes to find her.


Adam is puzzled when he connects Sarah to a cruise ship called the Celebrate - and to a woman, Estelle, who disappeared from the same ship in eerily similar circumstances almost exactly a year before. To get the answers, Adam must confront some difficult truths about his relationship with Sarah. He must do things of which he never thought himself capable. And he must try to outwit a predator who seems to have found the perfect hunting ground...

Media Reviews
An exhilarating debut thriller from a hugely talented author. Distress Signals is fast-paced, twisty and an absolute joy to read. -- Mark Edwards, #1 bestselling author of The Magpies and Follow You Home
A debut novel with a cracking plot and satisfyingly eerie writing throughout. * Woman's Way magazine *
Catherine Ryan Howard is an astonishing new voice in thriller writing. Make sure the children are fed, the cat is out and the box set is finished before you pick up Distress Signals because it will have to be wrenched from your hands before you will notice the world again. Pacey, suspenseful and intriguing, I highly recommend it for a top class page turning read. * Liz Nugent, author of 2014 IBA Crime Novel of the Year for Unravelling Oliver *
A tense, tight, original page turner... Definitely a new, exciting and original author to watch. * Sunday Independent *
I loved the voice and the Cork setting - an engaging, unusual and believable thriller. * Sinead Crowley, bestselling author of Are You Watching Me? *
A highly confident and accomplished debut novel, impeccably sustained, with not a false note... We will hear a great deal more of this author. * Irish Times *
An excellent debut thriller from Cork's Catherine Ryan Howard, which may give cruising executives some sleepless nights. * Irish Independent *
Twisty and gripping. * Claire McGowan, author of The Silent Dead *
