The Things you find in Rockpools: A Coastal Psychological Thriller

How do you catch a killer - when you’re just a kid?
A teenage girl disappears from a beach town at the height of summer. Two months later a massive police search has got nowhere. And eleven-year-old Billy Wheatley steps in to solve the case.

Billy’s something of a child prodigy - or at least he thinks he is. He lives on a desolate clifftop with just his distant father for company. Plus the animals that live in the rockpools around him. But he’s highly motivated, with his own reasons to want the police and coastguard off his beach.

Using all of his particular ingenuity, Billy unravels the mystery. But what he discovers puts him in terrible danger. The person who took the girl is someone he knows, only too well. And when they learn that Billy is onto them, they’re going to need him dead…

The Things you find in Rockpools is a compelling, atmospheric - and different - psychological thriller. It’s the second major release from Gregg Dunnett, whose debut novel The Wave at Hanging Rock, was downloaded over a quarter of a million times in 2017 and has over a thousand five-star reviews.  

“One of the most exciting thriller authors to emerge in recent years.”
“Trust me, young Billy Wheatley will stay in your head for a long time after you breathlessly finish the final pages.”
