A young woman finds herself on trial for murder, but did she do it This is the question five men grapple with as they ask themselves- which is the true face of Katie Cole A unique suspense novel for fans of Abigail Dean and Notes on an Execution. Daughter. Friend. Lover. Victim. Murderer When four wealthy and influential members of London's most exclusive private club are poisoned, a young waitress is charged with their murder. As the trial grips the nation, five men begin to question how well they really knew her. There's her father, who remembers the sweet girl growing up in Devon; her childhood friend, who is swept up in her fascination with conspiracy theories; her lover, who wants to distance himself from a young woman with an obsession; her barrister, who knows she's hiding something; and the journalist investigating the case, who is convinced he knows exactly what she is- a cold-blooded killer. To each of them, she is something different. But which is the true face of Katie Cole
Stunning: so clever, so gripping, so timely. This deserves to be huge -- LUCY FOLEY
Her Many Faces had me gripped from the start and I raced through it in two sittings. Clever, twisty and with such a unique narrative method that I was second guessing Katie Cole's guilt or innocence throughout, this novel firmly stakes Nicci Cloke's claim as the breakout suspense writer of the year, and she can count me as her number one fan! -- SARAH PINSBOROUGH
An ingenious, indignant, beautifully wrought psychological thriller. Nicci Cloke had me fooled repeatedly and I absolutely loved it. -- ERIN KELLY
Ingenious and gripping I loved it -- HARRIET TYCE
A clever, fast paced but emotionally insightful book. I loved it -- JO CALLAGHAN
I cant remember the last time I read such a quietly sensational page-turner. Astute, compelling and beautifully written, HER MANY FACES shines a light into the dark corners of power, family and obsession -- SARAH HILARY
A fresh, original and stunningly written thriller I couldnt stop turning the pages to get to the end. So clever. -- NIKKI SMITH
Stunningly original and smart, Her Many Faces had me reading late into the night, promising myself just one more chapter. I had chills down my spine the closer I got to the end and the perfectly plotted resolution. Relevant and timely. And genuinely SO good -- SAM HOLLAND, award-winning author of the MAJOR CRIMES series
Her Many Faces is a tour de force, intricately plotted and yet so readable. I raced to the end, never sure of Katie Coles innocence or guilt and fascinated by the many twists and turns. A brilliant read I will be recommending to everyone! -- AMANDA REYNOLDS, bestselling author of CLOSE TO ME
Thoughtful, clever, subtle and socially aware. The best suspense Ive read in a long time. The writing put me in mind of Abigail Dean. -- CAROLINE HULSE
