Reviews
Sunday Mirror
“The suspense becomes quite unbearable - and there's a final flourish in the form of a very punchy twist. A terrifyingly plausible story, that will have parents looking over their shoulders.”
Dorothy Koomson - Author
“Clever and compelling. This is a brave story, which is touching right down to the final word. I so enjoyed this book.”
The Sun
“A powerful and provocative read that will get under your skin.”
Amanda Prowse – Author
“A beautifully crafted novel of knife-edge suspense that held my attention to the very end. I wanted to compare the author to Gillian Flynn or Alice Sebold, but that wouldn't be right. This book is one hundred percent Linda Green, and Linda Green is bloody brilliant!”
BBC Radio Leeds Book Club
“This novel is fantastic. I couldn't put it down . . . I read it with my stomach fluttering the whole time.”
Isabelle Grey - Author
“A vivid and unnerving story about the terrifying knife-edges of motherhood. Nail-biting, creepy and so sad.”
