'A tense, unsettling and emotionally engaging whydunnit that grips from the first page' -- Sophie Hannah, Sunday Times bestselling author of Haven't They Grown

'Superb. A rare combination of stunning twists and exceptional prose makes it the perfect read' -- David Jackson, bestselling author of Cry Baby
