Medea's Curse

‘A proper plot-twisting page-turner… I was completely gripped.’ – Emma Healey, author of Elizabeth is Missing
‘A psychological thriller with all the ingredients.’ – Jennifer Byrne * Australian Women’s Weekly *
‘Buist gives the reader a plot that is original and believable, with more than one twist to keep the reader guessing to the end…This thought-provoking psychological thriller will stay with the reader long after the last page is turned. A brilliant read.’ * BookMooch *
‘Crime novels and thrillers depend on strong investigators whose idiosyncrasies make them distinctive and attractively flawed. Melburnian Anne Buist has ticked these boxes with her creation, Natalie King’ * Herald Sun *
‘Forensic psychologist Natalie King is not your average heroine nor is Medea’s Curse a predictable by-the-numbers thriller…An intelligent, thought-provoking tale.’ * Courier-Mail *
‘Medea’s Curse is a gripping ride of crime and tension, with a Lisbeth Salander-like lead roaring through danger and intrigue at a million miles an hour.’ * Adelaide Advertiser *
‘Buist has used her twenty-five years’ experience in perinatal psychiatry to good effect in her first psychological thriller…King is a lively new character with a good mix of appealing characteristics and interesting flaws.’ * Sydney Morning Herald *
‘An effective and engaging crime novel, that handles its issues compassionately, builds tension well and has a fascinating, flawed protagonist. It will be interesting to see what Anne Buist (and Natalie King) do next.’ * Aust Crime Fiction *
