Reviews

Absolutely, breathtakingly superb . . . delivers the highest possible grip factor from first word to last, and a more satisfying resolution than I dared to hope for * Sophie Hannah *
Nightwatching is acutely frightening and beautifully written, as tender as it is terrifying. I can't remember rooting for a character quite so hard * Abigail Dean *
Nightmarish . . . You won't be able to look away * Shari Lapena *
Heart-thumping and mesmerizing, a masterclass in tension and terror, its also a creative, thoughtful portrait of maternal fear and love. A must read * Ashley Audrain *
One of the most haunting, gripping novels I've read in a long time * Katie Gutierrez *
