Alice Salmon
young, smart, ambitious -
with her whole life ahead of her.
Until the night she mysteriously drowns.
Nobody knows how or why.
But Alice left a few clues:
her diary, texts, emails, and presence on social media
Alice is gone but fragments of the life she led remain - and in them might lie the answer to what really happened to her - if only someone can piece it all together before it vanishes for ever . . .

What She Leftis an extraordinary and bold creation
Every month brings another book billed the newGone Girl, but we think we've found a winner
A deliciously modern take on the psychological thriller ... a shifting, mesmerising, mysterious story ... very well-written and intelligently realised, occupying a territory half way between literary novel and thriller ... a memorable debut
An absorbing, intricate and extremely original novel. It is also immensely clever and intriguing. It kept making me recall how I'd felt watchingTwin Peaks. The kind of immediate shock and grief I felt for Laura Palmer was what I felt for Alice. The process of piecing together the heroine's life is so absorbing. I mourned her more and more powerfully as the story went on.What She Leftis beautifully written and very emotionally involving. I hope that it garners all of the commercial and critical success it deserves
There are a million psychological thrillers out there right now, but this one stands out . . . Richmond keeps you guessing until the final pages in this compelling debut
Strikingly modern
A tight, clever, compelling story ... the reader must act as detective, rebuilding Alice Salmon from the digital footprint she leaves behind
A clever, imaginative and entertaining attempt to immerse the whodunit in the world of social media
An ingeniously original premise ... addictive
What a wonderful new voice. What a pleasure to read a thriller that's so ambitious and so full of emotion and suspense. Bravo!
Intriguing and successful ... a crime thriller from a different angle, Richmond's accomplished debut encourages the reader to become the sleuth ... Genuinely chilling
Likely to be one of 2015's most haunting and unforgettable debuts. Accident, murder or suicide? ... A shocking story of love, loss and obsession where everyone has something to hide. It is a great read
Guaranteed to keep you guessing
Brilliant, totally original, "can't-put-down-able"
A classic whodunnit, given a modern twist
An engaging thriller, full of suspense
An exceptional book ... a forensic jigsaw, an ingenious puzzle ... and a most promising debut
Highly original, fascinating and completely compelling. I was hooked on Alice's story from the very first page. A novel guaranteed to make you look back and question your social media footprint, and how accurately it tells your own story
Taut, multi-layered . . . A disturbing, intelligently written novel that's a psychological thriller and crime novel all rolled into one . . . Richmond shatters every assumption with a series of brilliantly delivered curve balls . . . some critics are already comparing it toGone Girl.They're not wrong . . . the writing is strong, the narrative pace never slackens, while the climax is absolutely blistering
Intriguing ... presents enough believable suspects and motives to keep the reader gripped
This is how books should be written; full of trust and respect for the reader, allowing you to follow the darker paths and investigate yourself. This is a book of immense accomplishment, thrilling and clever - I absolutely devoured it, and I am left thinking simply that none of us are quite what we seem
What She Leftleads the reader down a dark and twisty path of suspense and intrigue. This gripping and stylishly written novel left me chilled to the bone and captivated me from beginning to end
WHAT SHE LEFT is bold and inventive storytelling. The reader becomes the investigator, sorting through diary entries, letters, tweets, and emails to discover the truth beneath the tales of an entire cast of potentially unreliable narrators. This is not only a clever thriller, but an insightful exploration of identity and the personae we create in the social-media era
