Critics Review

Intelligent and nuanced … raises a host of difficult but fascinating questions

* GUARDIAN *
A sprawling, stunning, twisting triumph. By turns heart-pounding and heart-wrenching, this is a story of marriage and murder, of the secrets we endure and the lies we tell ourselves to keep them. So achingly clever and stylish, More Than You’ll Ever Know is a special novel from a very special writer – Chris Whitaker
Breath-taking and brimming with empathy, exploration of motherhood, marriage, and the consequences that come from obsessions with true crime * Cosmopolitan *
I was enthralled with More Than You’ll Ever Know from the very first pages of Gutierrez’s rich and assured writing. A gripping and thoughtful exploration of motherhood and marriage, the complexity of female desire, and the consequence of our obsession with true crime, it’s one of the best suspenseful dramas I’ve read in years. An exceptional, stunning debut-I absolutely loved it – Ashley Audrain, New York Times bestselling author of The Push
A sweeping novel, unflinching and evocative in its engrossing study of love, motherhood, sex, Mexico, journalism and more * Washington Post *
A stunning portrait of female reckoning - Katie Gutierrez creates layered and vivid characters, forced to confront the complexities of their own desires. An immaculate novel that explores marriage and choice, partnership and autonomy, More Than You’ll Ever Know is a wonder to behold – Danya Kukafka, bestselling author of Notes On An Execution
Smart, sophisticated and sly, Katie Gutierrez masterfully weaves a tale of two families, a double life and an ultimate act of passion that will have you on the edge of your seat as the truth is revealed. There are thrillers that tease, but More Than You’ll Ever Know will haunt your dreams. A stunning debut from a magnificent storyteller – Adriana Trigiani
A tale of two women, two timelines, two sides of a border and two husbands, More Than You’ll Ever Know is a novel both compelling and resonant - a novel which grips you like a thriller as you are reading it, with characters and themes which linger in the mind like the best literary fiction. This is an unforgettable story, told brilliantly - one of those novels where from the first page you know you are in the hands of a writer of verve, confidence and conviction – Ellery Lloyd
A taut, unputdownable thriller, but also a gorgeously written examination of motherhood, ambition, and sacrifice, set between Texas and Mexico city. I loved every moment. – Grace Li, Sunday Times bestselling author of Portrait of a Thief
This is a crime book unlike any I’ve read before. More Than You’ll Ever Know is written with such beauty and tenderness - about the ferocity of love, the lure of desire, and the strength of family bonds. It blew me away – L.V. Matthews * bestselling author of Richard & Judy pick, The Twins *
