Critics Review
An assured debut that is as fresh and exciting as it is dark. Deft handling of sensitive subject matter: sex, power and control * Lisa Ballantyne * A slow-burn, atmospheric and literary thriller full of menace and secrets with some killer twists * Catherine Cooper * An exceptional debut: tense, taut and thrillingly original. Emma Cook writes beautifully * Sharon Bolton * This is a psychological thriller of the classier variety: notably well written, and tight with dark and disturbing tension. I was hooked * Joanna Briscoe * Emma Cook’s tightly woven thriller proves that the worst pain isn’t caused by physical wounds, but by the emotional harm we inflict on one another * Tara Laskowski *
