Critics Review

A compulsive, page-turning thriller - kept me invested and guessing from start to finish. Loved it * Jennie Godfrey, Sunday Times bestselling author of THE LIST OF SUSPICIOUS THINGS *Atmosphere, intrigue and decades old secrets and lies uncovered on the tide - this novel has it all * Sarah Lawton, author of ALL THE LITTLE THINGS *The innocence of children blossoming into adults during the lazy hazy days of a beach summer only to be devastated by a terrible tragedy is so beautifully and deftly handled that it’s hard to believe this is a debut. The Beach Hut positively sizzles. It’s as twisty as a sand worm castle with a plot that sizzles with dread and suspense! * Tina Orr Munro, author of SLAUGHTERHOUSE FARM *Leah has spun a gripping, knotty web of secrets with a cast of complex characters. The setting is wonderful, drawing the reader in … before whipping up a storm that brings a cloudy, claustrophobic atmosphere of lies and paranoia that leaves you turning the pages faster and faster. * Natalie Chandler, author of WHAT WE DID *A tense and compelling tale of love and loss, secrets, and lies – and their terrible consequences. Builds to a thrilling ending. I tore through this in two days! * MK Murphy, author of DEAD MAN WALKING *
