Fast, wickedly funny, hugely enjoyable. * Sunday Mirror *
[keeps] you in suspense until the end * Candis *
This thriller… packs a killer twist * Prima *
Morally complex, disturbing and very gripping. * Woman and Home *
What starts out to be a chiller turns into a brain-twisting shocker. All rather clever, really. * Sunday Sport *
A deliciously dark winter’s tale that delivers twist after twist as it races towards its shocking conclusion. The perfect thriller to curl up with this Christmas. * MARK EDWARDS (author of The Magpies) *
Exciting, chillingly complex ...a delicious dark twist at the end. * Publishers Weekly US *
I read Dying For Christmas peering out from between my fingers in fright - but I could NOT put it down. The twist left me reeling! I love all Tammy's books and this one is no exception. * LOUISE VOSS (co-author of From the Cradle) *
Dark and gloriously addictive… clear your diary, put your phone on silent and enjoy. * Bex Dawkins - myblightersrock.wordpress.com *

a great anti-Christmas tale * Cleopatra Loves Books Blog *
Chilling, twisty and addictive. I finished the last few pages walking from the train station, bumping into people, because I couldn't put it down. * JULIE COHEN (author of Dear Thing) *
Makes Gone Girl look like a beginners guide to gaslighting. * @PLMcElroy *
Disturbing, compelling and utter genius. * @caroline_S *
Dying for Christmas is one of the darkest and most ingenious pyschological thrillers on the market at the moment. * CultureFly.co.uk *
