Trade Review
I defy you to read the first chapter and not singe your fingers reading all the rest. It’s that compelling. It’s that good. * DAVID BALDACCI *
Tess Gerritsen is at the top of her game. Compelling and satisfying, this eerie, suspenseful novel had me turning the pages until the early hours. * Paula Daly *
Deeply creepy, seriously clever. * Sharon Bolton *
An outstanding story. * Associated Press *
Highly original thriller...Works brilliantly well as a thriller written across two timelines, with a heartfelt back story. Really gripping stuff. * Sunday Mirror *
