Lesley Kara is brilliant. I read TROUBLEMAKER in one sitting - it just would not let me put it down! * Peter James * This deliciously chilling suspense thriller is an absolute treat. Kara combines her astute grasp of human psychology with her observational skills to create a twisty and compelling story. I was up way too late reading and I can't recommend this enough. * Chris Bridges, author of SICK TO DEATH * A twisty thriller that had me gripped right from the very start after the protagonist witnesses a murder that then appears not to have happened. Lesley had me guessing all the way through the book and I loved the pairing up of two fantastic characters in Lena and Storm. A fabulous read! * Nikki Smith, author of THE BEACH PARTY * I raced through TROUBLEMAKER, desperate to know what on earth was going on. Twisty, compelling and full of heart * Laura Marshall, bestselling author of FRIEND REQUEST * I adored Storm and Lena, I loved everything about this book – one of my absolute favourite reads of the year. * Andrea Mara, bestselling author of IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN YOU * A hugely enjoyable page-turner. * Emma Curtis, author of THE BABYSITTER * Praise for Lesley Kara: * - * Lesley Kara keeps you guessing until the final page. * Paula Hawkins, No.1 bestselling author of THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN and INTO THE WATER * A slyly clever premise and a rollercoaster ride to the very last sentence. * Fiona Barton, bestselling author of THE WIDOW and THE CHILD * Startlingly original . . . It's hard to think of a recent novel than can match Kara's for an almost unbearable level of suspense. * Sunday Times *
