Recenzii

You will suspect everyone in this unbearably tense tale of betrayal and revenge
Breathtaking prose... Gripping and original'
A blistering mystery; the dark secrets lurking in the short summer shadows kept me turning the pages long into the night
Poetic writing with an eerie suspense that builds with each page
This atmospheric tale of guilty secrets revealed during a scorching summer is twisty, evocative and suspenseful
Beautifully told, the stifling heat and tension crackle through every page
An engrossing and twisty procedural
Blok has an elliptical, poetic stye that treats the narrative... A powerful, eventful novel that depicts grief as a pit "so deep and wide that there's no climbing out". The dizzying heat comes off the page'
This atmospheric novel is a slow burn - but well worth it
[A] scorchingly good thriller
Underlines [Blok's] exceptional ability as a storyteller... Gripping, twisty and immensely satisfying, this confirms Blok's talent'
A most ingenious version of the revenge tragedy
Deeply foreboding and utterly compelling... Blok skilfully rachets up the tension... An emotionally charged thriller that plays on the tragic humanity of its characters'
This atmospheric and at times almost unbearably tense tale of guilty secrets, betrayal and revenge is twisty, evocative and suspenseful. It is beautifully told, with the stifling heat helping to further build the tension which crackles through it. Blok's writing is increasingly assured and compelling and she is as deft about human relationships as she is about creating an increasingly foreboding atmosphere with a steady ratcheting up of suspense as she switches timelines and perspectives
