About The Book
More Than Us by Jo O'Neill
More Than Us
Unpacking cultural misogyny, this supernatural thriller shows how the unspeakable can hide in plain sight.
He’s who everyone wants to be, or be with. Respected and charismatic. A public servant with a career that’s going places. But the charm is a façade. He’s addicted to psychological control. It’s a high even more satisfying than murder. And he should know.
Bailey used to be excited for her future, now she struggles to get through each day. Sophie can only watch her friend slipping away. The only thing more terrifying than seeing him manipulate Bailey, is what he’ll do when he gets bored. Sophie knows firsthand what he’s capable of. So do the others in his growing circle of victims. But how do they stop him? He has power and status. They’re dead.
Poignant and chilling, More Than Us juxtaposes the heady rush of new love with the creeping danger of coercive control, and those who enable the unspeakable with those who find the courage to confront it
The Author about the how the book came to be.
Jo explains: “I didn’t set out to write about the supernatural, but I wanted to give agency to the victims. So many stories about serial killers focus on the villain, reducing the victims to ‘bodies’ — voiceless, a riddle to be solved. This is not that kind of story. As for the title. To quote the book: ‘This was about more than us. He was one man, and we were his victims, but neither he nor we were the first, the only, or the last.’”
