Critics Review
Genuinely disturbing and emotionally unsettling, The Wicked Girls is irresistible - Val McDermid
Having read it and devoured every page, I really wish I’d written it! It was cleverly plotted and pacy, with all the storylines thundering towards a final, gripping conclusion. I loved it - Elizabeth HaynesThe Wicked Girls is utterly compelling. It’s psychologically rich, complex and masterfully plotted. I couldn’t put it down, even when I sensed it was taking me somewhere very dark indeed. I can’t wait to see what Alex Marwood comes up with next - Jojo MoyesThe best thriller I’ve read since Sister. Taut, gritty and utterly compelling - Lisa JewellDark, twisty and full of good surprises and insights. Marwood has delivered a compelling debut crime novel - Daily MailThis incredible story will play on your mind. Two weeks after I read it, I can’t stop thinking about it. The book of the year - The SunI devoured The Wicked Girls over one weekend and loved it. I held my breath during the last few chapters - Erin KellyThought-provoking read - Star MagazineAbout The Author
