Recenzii

Hallett has aced it... Every page is a joy, with laugh-out-loud moments... The startling final reveal crowns Hallett as the queen of unreliable narrators
Even better [than The Appeal]... This fiendishly clever book manages to be both tricksy and surprisingly moving
Hallett swoops in with a bravura final section that sheds new light on everything you've read before and will leave you amazed at her ingenuity. It's all right there in the code
A tour de force - a genuinely complex puzzle with real clues to be solved... A mind-bending, heartwarming mystery that is not to be missed
A big-hearted, ingeniously constructed mystery... A book that will engage your emotions as much as your wits
Such a clever whodunnit, and she's an absolute master of what she does
A "cancelled" book is at the heart of Hallett's much-acclaimed, complex novel. Elegant, puzzling metafictional writing that pleasurably tasks readers with extricating the truth
A thoroughly unusual thriller
I came for the acrostics and stayed for the rich characterisation and sly humour
A brilliantly clever, deceptive mystery with a unique twist
If you love a puzzle, you'll enjoy this novel packed full of mystery and intrigue. Perfect for Richard Osman and SJ Bennett fans
Ingenious
Hallett is a deft storyteller, and her latest combines humor and pathos... will keep readers in suspense until the final page
Enid Blyton meets Agatha Christie with a cracking twist. Witty and wonderful
A wonderful book, clever and surprisingly compassionate, constantly wrong-footing the reader on its way to an ingenious and wholly satisfying final reveal
Fiendishly clever... Golden Age Christie-esque puzzle meets The Usual Suspects. Outstanding. Unlike anything you'll ever read
The Twyford Code turned my brain inside out. It totally foxed me. So clever and totally brilliant
I thoroughly enjoyed it. It really pulls you in, and makes for addictive reading
Filled with numerous clues, acrostics, and red herrings, this thrilling scavenger hunt for the truth is delightfully deceptive and thoroughly immersive
Addictive
Puzzle fans will undoubtedly enjoy Hallett's bighearted thriller
A peculiar, complex labyrinth where reality and fantasy overlap... Sad, funny, weird, and truly original, this is a hypnotic tale with an extraordinary ending
An elegant puzzle of a book, which entombs an exquisite little heart
A multi-layered, multi-voiced mystery unlike anything I've read before. It's packed with tricky clues, red herrings and cunning acrostics, but ultimately it packs an emotional punch you don't see coming
A highly original, immersive story that draws you in from the very beginning and keeps you thinking. Smithy was a fascinating character with whom it was a pleasure to spend time
Packed with perplexing puzzles and linguistic legerdemain, but behind that is a poignant tale of redemption
I absolutely love it. The Secret Seven for grownups
An ingenious novel that allows the reader to investigate the case themselves. Full of twists and credible characters, I loved every single word
A superb mystery with true heart at its centre. No one does twists quite like Janice Hallett
Janice Hallett is a genius at conjuring a whole world through dialogue, and yet there's so much more to it than that. Pure genius
A stunning book. A fiendishly clever yarn that hooked me from the first line to the final revelation
Just finished the brilliant The Twyford Code by Janice Hallett. It's twisty, clever and deceptive, with clues dropped along the way - although I missed most of them! Loved it!
I read the last fifty pages of The Twyford Code with my mouth hanging open and my brain very close to exploding. There is clever and then there's this.
