Recenzii

'Enthrallingly complex ... A multi-stranded narrative that grips' -- The Sunday Times 'Intriguing, unnerving and engrossing ... the most adept of psychological thrillers, in which - as with Hannah's other novels - the psychosis lying just below the surface of the human personality is exposed ... A remarkable novel, and an adventure to read ... Undoubtedly a first-class whodunit that will keep you reading long into the night.' -- Scotsman 'Sophie Hannah has quickly established herself as a doyenne of the 'home horror' school of psychological tension, taking domestic situations and wringing from them dark, gothic thrills ... Combining probability theory, poetry and murder, this is a densely plotted suspenser with a coded puzzle that would grace a Golden Age mystery.' -- Financial Times 'A perplexing thriller with intrigue and infanticide ... It's a given that nothing will be as it seems in the latest psychological thriller from Sophie Hannah, who marries complex plots with crisp, conversational prose' -- Marie Claire 'As Hannah sees it things are rarely clear cut and it is this moral ambivalence that makes her fiction so provocative' -- Daily Express 'Hannah takes domestic scenarios, adds disquieting touches and turns up the suspense until you're checking under the bed for murders ... it's this real-life research that helps make it so convincing - and so unsettling' -- Independent 'Hannah is a master of intense psychological thrillers ... Full of twists and turns, and terrifying, too' **** -- Heat 'When it comes to ingenious plots that twist and turn like a fairground rollercoaster few writers can match Sophie Hannah. Hannah's complex and beautifully written tale kept me guessing right till the very last page.' -- Daily Express 'A convincing narrative of miscarried justice and individual trauma ... Hannah produces an enthrallingly complex plot whose serious themes are never undercut by her knack for comedy' -- The Times
