Trade Review
Anne Fine is right on top form in The Devil Walks, a page-turning sinister tale where the tension mounts to the very end . . . Now read on! A splendid child's introduction to the gothic -- Marilyn Brocklehurst * The Bookseller *
A superb and subtle writer . . . a joyful marriage of style and content . . . The Devil Walks is immediately a classic in its own right -- Mal Peet * Guardian *
It is a pitch-perfect Gothic thriller * Daily Telegraph *
Recommended, but not for a dark and stormy night * Financial Times *
Crackling with suspense, The Devil Walks is a dense psychological thriller set in a richly imagined past. Moody and unsettling, it is filled with intrigue and uncertainty to keep the readers guessing until the last page -- Jake Hope * The Bookseller *
