Critic reviews

'You'll never guess where this book is going' SAMANTHA DOWNING

'Totally gripping, with characters who draw you in' JP DELANEY

'A thriller that had me desperate for answers. I loved it!' HARRIET TYCE

Really good detective mystery

Very likable detective characters! Hope there is a sequel! Narration was great. Give it a try!

Sharon Bolton's first LGBT title....

With Sharon Bolton, one can always expect the unexpected.

She is an extraordinarily talented author who takes risks and never, ever delivers the "same old, same old."

What was this book's most "unexpected"????

SEX!!!!

Lesbian sex, heterosexual sex, threesome sex, and bisexuality --- just to name a few!

A very far cry from Sharon Bolton's nuns in "Dead Woman Walking".

Definitely enjoyed Sharon Bolton's "sexless" titles much more than this one.

Twisty and compelling

Sharon Bolton never fails to provide a great story and this one did not disappoint. Listening to the audiobook edition only enhanced the tension of the story. Both narrators were great and propelled the story along making it impossible to stop listening.

Absolutely Brilliant

I LOVED everything about this book. The readers were also perfect. I would listen to this over and over again.

This book is an absolute must‐read!

This book is exactly as described. It's very gripping, and the twists are indeed jaw-dropping. You will not want to put this one down.
