The Alpha Flame: Discovery

Some girls survive. Others set the world on fire.

She didn’t go looking for trouble. But when she found Beth, bruised, broken, and terrified, Maggie couldn’t walk away.

But nothing prepares her for Beth.

As she digs deeper into Beth’s world, Maggie finds herself pulled into the shadows, a seedy underworld of secrets, survival, and control, where loyalty is rare and nothing is guaranteed. The more she uncovers, the more she realises this isn’t someone else’s nightmare. It’s her own.

The Alpha Flame: Discovery is a gritty, emotionally charged thriller that pulls no punches. Raw, real, and anything but a fairy tale, it’s a story of survival, sisterhood, and fire.

Perfect for fans of Verity, Girl A, The Silent Patient, and Then She Was Gone, this dark and emotional women’s psychological thriller blends suspense, survival, and buried secrets with the grit of working-class Britain.

The Alpha Flame: Discovery is a slow-burn psychological drama, raw and unflinching, yet laced with hope. It explores what it means to endure, to break, and to find the strength to rise again, blending dark women’s fiction with themes of trauma, survival, found family, and emotional healing.

Listeners looking for British crime fiction, psychological suspense, or domestic thrillers with strong female leads will find much to uncover here.

This is not a story about being rescued. It’s a story about burning your way out.
