Critics Review

Praise for Kate Ellis:A beguiling author who interweaves past and present * The Times *Haunting * Independent *I loved this novel … a powerful story of loss, malice and deception – Ann CleevesThe chilling plot will keep you spooked and thrilled to the end * Closer *Star author. Unputdownable * Bookseller *I absolutely loved this book … A perfectly paced crime novel that beautifully evokes both time and place. Kate Ellis keeps you guessing all the way through to the final unexpected twist – L. C. TylerA splendidly macabre thriller with a very dark heart and a hugely effective twist at the end – Andrew TaylorFascinating, with a characteristically clever twist – Martin EdwardsImagine a plot as devious as anything Agatha Christie devised, locate it in a Derbyshire village in 1919 and with writing as close to the pulse as Vera Brittain’s Testament of Youth and you will have some idea of the extraordinary power of Kate Ellis’s new novel – Peter Lovesey
