*Sarah Hilary*
A novel you swallow whole because you can't help yourself, and then
go back a second time to savour what you missed. Wonderful
*M. R. Carey, author of The Girl with All the Gifts*
Riveting read. A psychological thriller that stands out from the
mass - stylishly written, with a slick command of language and
location, and a great 'missing girl' mystery at its core. Great
stuff!
*Vaseem Khan*

heartbreaking
