When the mind turns against itself, nowhere feels safe.

In Split Ends, twelve psychological thriller stories unravel the fragile line between truth and delusion, trust and obsession, safety and danger. These are stories of fractured identities, buried motives, escalating fixations, and the quiet moments when reality begins to slip. From a roommate who may never have existed to a luxury flight gone wrong, from a stalker's shadow to a forest that seems to answer violence with its own brand of justice, each story invites you deeper into unease.

Inside this anthology, you'll find:

unreliable minds and shifting realities
dangerous relationships and private obsessions
secrets, blackmail, paranoia, and revenge
unsettling twists that linger long after the final page

Curated by Guest Editor Lena Samson from more than fifty submissions, Split Ends brings together an international mix of voices in psychological suspense.

Perfect for readers who love short, sharp thrillers, dark emotional tension, and the creeping dread of not knowing what's real.
