Critics Review

Riveting - DAILY MAIL

Tragic and engrossing - FINANCIAL TIMES

Provocative and skilful … unsettling - GUARDIAN

Brilliantly paced, moving, thoughtful and sharp. Loved it

Stormingly good, deliciously addictive, as gripping as Zoe Heller’s Notes On A Scandal. It’s got to be the beach read of 2018!

‘Wonderful … It’s a very painful story but told with a kind of lightness and grace. An absolutely astonishing first novel’
