Now reissued in B-format paperback, a terrifying stand-alone thriller by one of Britain's bestselling crime-writers.
Mo Hayder has written some of the most terrifying crime thrillers you will ever read. Her first novel, Birdman, was hailed as a 'first-class shocker' by the Guardian and her follow-up, The Treatment was voted by the Times one of 'the top ten most scary thrillers ever written'. In 2012 Gone won the prestigious Edgars Best Novel award. Mo left school at 15 and has worked as a barmaid, security guard, English teacher, and even a hostess in a Tokyo club. She has an MA in film making from the American University in Washington DC and an MA in creative writing from Bath Spa University. She now lives in England's West Country and is a full-time writer.

Mo Hayder has a profound ability to shock and surprise her readers,
and Pig Island surpasses anything she has written before. She's the
bravest writer I know
*Karin Slaughter*
Mo Hayder is the closest thing we've got to Stephen King, which is
close enough...the goriest thriller writer this side of the
pond
*Mirror*
She has created the most warped and bloodthirsty visions of
psychopathic behaviour. No matter how much you might despise
yourself for getting sucked into such places, she is brilliant at
making you read on
*Daily Telegraph*
Hayder’s writing is, as ever, briskly paced and fluid
*The Times*
Hayder has always had the unrivalled ability to conjure up
grotesqueries that chill, but here she outdoes herself
