I read it in one sitting. Totally captivated. So dark and cruel and yet still somehow still bearable because her characters are - as ever - among the most fascinating anyone ever writes. -- Adele Parks You don't read a Lisa Jewell book, you fall into it. It takes huge talent to establish a whole world in the turn of two pages. -- Erin Kelly A stunning psychological thriller with a dark family story at its centre. Full of atmosphere and menace. I was gripped from the first page. It's SO GOOD! Yet another brilliant novel... Lisa Jewell is the new Ruth Rendell or Barbara Vine. Just mesmerising.
