I swear I didn't breathe the whole time I was reading it.
Lisa's Jewell's The Family Ups.
She's always great but this is next level stuff.'
SARAH PINBOROUGH '
Few writers of psychological suspense devise such swift, slippery plots; fewer still people their stories with characters so human and complex.
Great characterisation, a fascinating and dark set up and a great conclusion.
Stupendous!'
RUTH JONES '
Absolutely brilliant.
It takes huge talent to establish a whole world in the turn of two pages.'
ERIN KELLY '
I had an unrelentingly pleasurable and thrilling for-God's-sake-tell-me-what-happened sensation in my stomach for the entire read ... ____________________________ '
Rich, dark and intricately twisted, this enthralling whodunnit mixes Family saga with domestic noir to brilliantly chilling effect.'
RUTH WARE '
You don't read a Lisa Jewell book, you fall into it.
A compulsive new thriller from Lisa Jewell.
A house with the darkest of secrets.
Who has been looking after the baby? And where did they go? Two entangled families.
They've been dead for several days.
Close to them is a hastily scrawled note.
In the kitchen lie three decomposing corpses.
Well-fed and cared for, she is happily waiting for someone to pick her up.
Gripping, pacy, brilliantly twisty.'
CLARE MACKINTOSH '
Creepy, intricate and utterly immersive: an excellent holiday read.'
GUARDIAN '
A twisty and engrossing story of betrayal and redemption.'
