What Makes This Collection Special:
Pearse's five novels illuminate the human capacity to endure and reinvent oneself. Each title centers on a female protagonist facing extraordinary circumstances—family secrets, moral dilemmas, and the consequences of choices made under pressure. Read as a binge, the collection offers a panoramic view of Pearse’s evolving storytelling: intimate character studies, gritty urban scenes, and sweeping emotional arcs that stay with you long after the final page. The non-linear, standalone nature of each story means you can start anywhere, yet together they form a powerful arc about courage, sisterhood, and second chances. Owning the set also makes gifting easy—perfect for book-loving friends and family who want a complete, cohesive Pearse experience in one package. In short: drama, heart, and a bookshelf staple in one beautiful paperback collection.

Books Included in This Collection:
Dead to Me
Dead to Me follows two girls, Verity and Ruby, who meet by chance on Hampstead Heath and form a bold friendship that challenges their families' expectations. As war swirls through London, Ruby is sent to Devon while Verity confronts a past that could engulf her. Pearse builds suspense through intimate scene-work and deftly interleaves past and present until a heart-stopping moment tests their loyalty. A haunting meditation on forgiveness, memory, and the price of truth.

A Lesser Evil
A Lesser Evil plunges Fifi into the dangerous world that lurks behind Dale Street’s bright facades. She defies convention for love, only to discover that loyalty can be deadly when neighbours hide dark secrets. Pearse crafts a tense, atmospheric tale where one compassionate act could ignite a web of consequences. The narrative marches toward a chilling reckoning that will keep you turning pages—long after the light-hearted promises of romance fade.

Stolen
Stolen introduces a woman who wakes bound and bruised, with no memory and a newborn baby by her side. Her name is missing, the police are baffled, and every clue pushes her further from safety. Pearse threads a taut mystery through memory, identity, and the longing to belong, as investigators race to reconstruct a life that seems almost erased. With each twist, the stakes rise, and the truth becomes an instrument of survival rather than vengeance.

Forgive Me
Forgive Me follows Eva as she uncovers her mother Flora’s secret past through diaries and paintings from the swinging sixties. The discoveries threaten to rewrite family history and the truths Eva believed about love, art, and loyalty. Pearse blends a compelling mystery with a tender mother-daughter journey, letting clues echo through decades. As Eva traces Flora’s footsteps, readers are drawn into a story where forgiveness requires courage, and the past refuses to stay buried.

Gypsy
Gypsy follows 15-year-old Beth from Liverpool as she heads to America with dreams of a brighter future. Her fiddle talent opens doors—and doors close just as quickly—as she travels through a landscape of gamblers, outlaws, and possibility on the road to the Klondike. Pearse paints a sweeping, adventurous portrait of a girl learning who she is in a world that refuses to give her an easy home. It’s a rousing tale of grit, belonging, and the search for home.
