*Shari Lapena*
Wondering if Into the Water could be as good as The Girl on the
Train? It's better. A triumph.
*Clare Mackintosh*
Fans of Paula Hawkins’ The Girl on the Train rejoice: her second
novel Into the Water is even better. A brilliantly plotted and
fast-paced juggernaut of a read that hurtles to a heart-stopping
conclusion.
*Good Housekeeping (Book of the Month)*
It’s like PD James wrote an episode of The Wire… A twisting
whodunit that leaves you both gratified and surprised (also the
best kind)… Not just a brilliant thriller but also a furious
feminist howl…
*Stylist*
The prose is powerful and richly descriptive. As the threads of the
plot mesh together and the tension builds it develops into a
brooding and complex read that deserves to make a splash in its own
right.
