Critics Review

Praise for Andrea Mara * : *
Spine-chilling, with stunning writing that will leave you on the edge of your seat. Andrea Mara never misses and this is no exception. * Frieda McFadden *
It’s all ominous chapter endings and artful dialogue that pours across the page like good prosecco. * The Times *
Impossible to put down – a fast paced thriller with twists and turns around every corner. * Patricia Cornwell *
I honestly inhaled this, couldn’t wait to get back to it. I think it’s Andrea’s best book yet. The twists just kept coming.’ * Liz Nugent *
Riveting…twisty and so full of secrets that you’ll be dying to discover the truth! * Shari Lapena *
Ingenious plotting, brilliantly written, pacy and totally unpredictable, I devoured it over a weekend. This is Andrea Mara’s best book yet. Absolutely outstanding! * Claire Douglas *
Punchy writing, strong characterisation and short chapters propel it to a dramatic, satisfying finale. Highly recommended. * Sunday Independent *
The convincing storyline maintains real dread in a world of everyday domestic detail. Very enjoyable. * Daily Mail *
So clever. Tense, twisty, turny. * Jennie Godfrey *
