Media Reviews
A slickly plotted, whip smart thriller - genuinely chilling and totally compulsive * Sunday Mirror, Book of the Week *
[A] chilling psychological thriller...a tense, claustrophobic marriage of secrets, tequila shots and shotguns * Sunday Express *
If the premise might be the sort that Agatha Christie would have toyed with had she been a 21st-century graduate, Ware's analysis of the power-games some women revel in - and the toxicity in the undertow of some female friendships - is more reminiscent of Sophie Hannah, Christobel Kent, or even Gillian Flynn and Harriet Lane -- Patricia Nicol * Independent *
You won't be able to put down this creepy page-turner * Closer *
Thrilling, gripping & well-written * Metro, Book of the Week *
Toxic friendships, an isolated house, a dark snowy wood... Everyone's worst nightmare, and the perfect ingredients for this tense, terrifying novel -- Clare Mackintosh, author of I Let You Go
This is one of the hottest crime debuts around, one that does for friendship what Gone Girl did for marriage * Netgalley *
So gripping. So glad my hen do days are behind me. It's going to be huge -- Tamar Cohen, author of Dying for Christmas and The Broken
