Reviews

Full of secrets and lies, the perfect page-turner Sunday Times bestseller, Susan Lewis

A fizzing, unputdownable, gripping read Elizabeth Day

A compelling, all-too-recognisable story that shows were never more than one bad decision away from losing everything that matters. Secrets, lies, suspicion and betrayal: THE FALLOUT has it all and then some T M Logan

A sharp, witty look at friendships and frenemies HEAT

The Fallout is a story about what happens when you become trapped in a lie . . . Chock-full of suspense and drama, this was very difficult to put down and reminded me a lot of Liane Moriartys novels. Once you start reading, better turn off your phone and snuggle in for the night
Sally Hepworth

Absolutely compulsive, I couldnt put it down. Perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty and The Slap Suzy K Quinn

Brilliant on female friendships, on motherhood and the complex nuances of being a woman . . . Loved it! Katy Regan

Will get everyone talking! A gripping, bitingly witty snapshot of school-gate politics, The Fallout is as heartfelt as it is satirical, peeling back the emotional layers of parenthood, marriage and, above all, friendship Samantha King
