Critics Review

Intriguing

A startlingly original blend of mystery, love story and emotional journey…not be missed * Stylist *
An exquisite, creepy and unexpectedly sexy murder mystery…with the tension of a Nicci French thriller, the intellectual fizz of Donna Tatt’s The Secret History and the very best of Maggie O’Farrell’s unnerving readability, Dymott is a classy storyteller… Read this novel now before everyone else starts talking about it * Elle *
A powerful meditation on grief, love and the nature of uncertainty * Sunday Times *
Elegant and eerie * Marie Claire *
Intriguing * Woman & Home *
A compelling mystery… I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an intelligent page turner * Farm Lane Books *
In addition to creating a cleverly calibrated and creepy murder mystery, Dymott has also fashioned a neatly tailored exploration of the desperate psychology of loss… This is a cunning, sharp first novel that revels in keeping one in the dark * Independent on Sunday *
Wholly absorbing * Evening Standard *
Wonderfully unique * The Times *
It’s rare to feel so completely inside someone’s head * Psychologies *
