APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Australian author Michael Robotham is known for crafting suspenseful novels that also offer distinctly three-dimensional characters. That’s certainly true of When You Are Mine, which examines the threat of both toxic friendship and domestic abuse within the frame of a pacy crime thriller. The novel introduces Philomena McCarthy, a young London police officer raised in the long shadow of her gangster father and uncle. When Philomena responds to a domestic assault involving a fellow officer, she’s drawn towards the victim before realising that their budding friendship has come with a great many red flags—and embroiled both of them in a murder with far-reaching consequences. English actor Katy Sobey brings Philomena to life with grounded sensitivity, both here and again in 2025’s The White Crow.
