Atmospheric and beautifully written... combines complex and believable characters with a heart-breaking and head-spinning plot'
Dahl savagely delineates the price of living in a society that insists women must try to be perfect wives and mothers and have successful careers, too, or they'll be inevitably made to feel they're never good enough
Unsettling, layered, bold, unpredictable, dark. EXCELLENT
A novel of remarkable accomplishment that sets its nuanced and intriguing characters in the context of a plot that grips like a vice
A riveting psychological thriller
Alex Dahl's sharp characterisations make her story feel fresh
[Dahl] adds some twisted black humour and creates a tense narration that will keep readers intrigued and wondering how to approach the main character
A rollicking great read... [Cecilia] is a fascinating character who lies relentlessly, with reckless abandon, in a desperate bid to protect the big secret she's hiding'
