​
I'm Zoe Rosi, a horror and thriller author from Oxfordshire, UK. Welcome to my site!
Here you can find out more about me and my books.
​​
I write dark, gritty fiction that explores themes of revenge, obsession, and trauma. As a former news reporter, I tend to be drawn to the zeitgeist, zoning in on what's happening right now and responding to it, examining the mood of the moment and questions posed by modern life. An undercurrent of feminist feeling permeates my books, and they often feature women taking their power back, something I never seem to get tired of writing about.
​
My debut thriller, Pretty Evil, was released in 2020 and was about a vigilante serial killer of predatory men who hunts down her victims using Tinder. Published by an indie press at the height of MeToo, it was at the forefront of a now-popular trope in publishing.
​​
Since Pretty Evil came out, I released novella Courier about a creepy courier who becomes obsessed with a woman on his delivery route. Likened to the TV series You, Courier struck a chord with readers, as it explores the chilling stalking possibilities that having an unhinged courier could entail.

​
I'm currently working on a dystopian horror novel, which I hope to share more about soon. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy exploring my site. You can also sign up to my newsletter here or connect with me on Instagram or TikTok.

Meet Bob, your local courier.
You've barely noticed him. You've barely even looked his way.
But he's noticed you. He's noticed everything about you.
He's been paying very close attention indeed.
And he likes what he sees...

Available in ebook, paperback and audio from Amazon, Waterstones, Barnes & Noble, and from this site's shop.
