Critics Review

Clever and atmospheric, with shades of Stand By Me

Unpredictable, wildly original and with an ending that made me gasp, this is thriller writing at its very best – Nuala EllwoodSimon Lelic is on my radar from this point forward. The Search Party is taut, beautifully written, and scary as hell, with more twists than a mountain road – Christina DalcherI loved this book, from one of my favourite authors. You’ll definitely want to read this absorbing, creepy, and totally unputdownable novel – Luca VesteI raced through The Search Party, unable to put it down. It’s tense, twisty and intricately plotted, with characters that stay with you long after you’ve read the last page – Laura MarshallA brilliantly original story with an immediately intriguing cast of characters and a compelling mystery that kept me hooked throughout. With his insightful characterisation combined with a gripping plot, Lelic has just recruited a brand new fan – Philippa EastA masterful, original … A thriller and a half – Michael Wood
