Critics Review
A romantic tale of detection and disillusion, it is very well written and genuinely creepy * The Times *This is a very atmospheric tale with well-drawn characters and a surprising ending – Christena Appleyard * Daily Mail *Seriously good. Ingenious plotting and the sort of writing that makes you pause and wish you’d penned that. Plus Dartmoor, in all its mercurial, desolate beauty is brilliantly rendered – Sarah Vaughan, author of Anatomy of a ScandalA reminder that we are in something of a new Golden Age for contemporary crime fiction with this impeccably plotted riff on The Secret History… possibly the most accomplished spin on a familiar plot device, crammed full of idiosyncratic characterisations * Financial Times *Dangerous things, reunions. Ego, jealousy, different bank account balances. It’s a recipe for conflict. In Holly Watt’s new thriller it might be a recipe for murder too * Herald *It’s a thrilling premise with heart-racing execution. Watt keeps you second-guessing as you race through to the chilling denouement. Thought-provoking and unnerving, this is a smart page-turner with killer secrets and dark twists, populated with characters who you’ll love to hate. Absolute book club dynamite - a must-read! – Ellery LloydAgatha Christie meets The Big Chill – I loved it! An intricate plot, intriguing characters, edge-of-the seat suspense – this has got it all! – Chris HammerA meticulously plotted tale of buried secrets and unsettled scores that keeps you gleefully guessing as the tension builds to a pitch-perfect reveal – Tim GlisterInspired … exquisitely plotted and brilliantly executed … a genuine page turner – Fiona ErskineTotally gripping. A wildly original take on what happens when gilded youth gets all tarnished and bloody. Holly Watt teaches us to chose our friends wisely, because it can get horribly messy and altogether fatal otherwise. A top-notch read written by a master of the art. Loved it – Judith O’ReillyYou either got it or you don’t … and Holly Watt absolutely has * The Times, on The End of the Game *Watt’s prose crackles with energy * Financial Times, on The Dead Line *Holly Watt is a master storyteller – Stephen Mack Jones, on To The Lions
