“Without any Proof” – comes on May 15th in your Bookshop
Before a book is published, there’s a phase when it belongs to only a few people. Early readers who receive the manuscript without jacket copy, without a publisher’s announcement, without context. Just the text.
I gave “Without any Proof” to a small group — women and men between 28 and 51, some of them readers with a literary background, others simply people who read widely and with pleasure. No guidelines, no questions, just the request: tell me what you really think.
“Without any Proof” will be published on May 15, 2026, in English and German.
“Hank is not a monster. That’s the worst part of it.” — Miriam, 41, management consultant
“The book explained something about my own mother that I had never put into words.” — Catherine, 38, physician
“I’ve read books about domestic violence in which the man is wrong from the very first page. Not here. Hank is someone you watch lose himself — slowly, without drama, almost bureaucratically. The blow comes, and you think: of course. Not because it was inevitable. But because no one spoke in time. That’s harrowing.” — Hannah, 32, editor
The Delilah-Principle – my Debut novel
The Delilah Principle is a psychologically taut suspense novel that hurts where it’s most realistic: in relationships, in families, and in the things you “only” say between the lines.
A man thinks he has his life under control. But when outside decisions start edging into everyday routines, a seemingly orderly existence turns into a finely calibrated power game: Who defines “stability”? Who decides what’s true? And how much control is hidden inside what looks like care? That’s the core of the Delilah Principle—control that doesn’t show up as control. No outright ban, no shouted command, but a gentle “I’m only trying to help,” a carefully set frame you adjust to voluntarily. Not because you have to, but because it feels like peace—until you realize you haven’t been making your own choices for a long time.
With New York as a stage of glamour, speed, and chill, Glenn Harrow explores emotional manipulation, veiled threats, and the quiet question of how to stay true to yourself when your life suddenly starts running by someone else’s rules. The tension doesn’t come from explosions, but from looks, lines, pauses—and the sense that something is wrong long before you can prove it.
Harrow is in his element here. As the author of psychologically profound novellas, he demonstrates his razor-sharp ability to expose inner conflicts, dependencies, and the subtle cracks in seemingly perfect facades.
For readers who love psychological drama, domestic-thriller vibes, and stories about toxic dynamics. Intense, smart, unsettling—and absolutely bingeable.
If you love books that stay with you for days afterward, The Delilah Principle is definitely your next read.
