Blood Orange is a psychological thriller by Harriet Tyce, published in 2019 in the UK by Wildfire, and in the United States by Grand Central Publishing.
The story centres around Alison, a criminal barrister who drinks heavily and is having an extra-marital affair with Patrick, a colleague. Initially her husband Carl seems sensible until Alison's first murder case leads her to see a parallel life to her own. Madeline, a wealthy woman found by the cleaner one morning sitting next to her stabbed husband, Edwin, insists she is guilty. Carl's true nature simultaneously unfolds as he drugs Alison, spies on her and attempts to discredit her motherhood.
According to Amazon, the book became popular during the COVID-19 lockdowns in 2020.
