London, UK – December 11th, 2024 – Writer and performer, Tuula Costelloe, has released her highly anticipated debut novel Mercy, a thriller delving into the ethical and emotional complexities surrounding euthanasia, freedom and the lengths one is willing to go for love. Available now on Amazon, Mercy is a gripping, thought-provoking read that challenges societal norms and confronts powerful moral dilemmas.
In Mercy, Costelloe presents a world where euthanasia has been legalised, sparking a fierce national debate. The story follows Myles, a man grappling with his past mistakes in a society divided by the vote, and Erica, a woman who escapes a nightmare only to find herself trapped in a journey of self-discovery and moral conflict. As Myles seeks Erica, he is drawn into a dangerous and secretive retreat, where healing promises come at a high price.
“Mercy is a novel about boundaries – moral, emotional and physical – and the choices we make when those boundaries are pushed to their extremes,” says Costelloe. “I wanted to create a story that explores the intersection of love and autonomy, freedom and sacrifice, in a world where everything is at stake.”
The novel’s release comes when the UK is debating the legalisation of assisted dying, giving the book an added layer of relevance and urgency. Costelloe’s exploration of these sensitive issues offers a poignant commentary on the current climate, inviting readers to reflect on their beliefs and the consequences of such life-altering decisions.
A Powerful Debut in Thrilling Fiction
Costelloe, known for her work in the indie horror film scene and as a playwright, brings her signature style to Mercy, blending suspense, action and philosophical inquiry. Drawing on her personal experiences and her passion for complex, daring characters, Costelloe creates a world that is as unsettling as it is compelling.
“Mercy isn’t just a thriller; it’s a catalyst for conversations that are often too difficult to have,” says Costelloe. “The characters in this novel find themselves in situations that demand they rethink their beliefs about life, death and love.”
Available Now
Mercy is now available for purchase on Amazon. Whether you’re a fan of dark thrillers, psychological drama, or contemporary explorations of morality, this novel promises to keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last page.
Mercy is a must-read for anyone who enjoys bold, provocative storytelling that explores the deepest corners of the human psyche.
