“Deliciously dark and utterly addictive—my favourite Ruth Ware yet!”
— LUCY FOLEY, New York Times bestselling author of The Paris Apartment “Every Ruth Ware novel is a unique and unexpected gem and this one is no exception. A heady, tense, slow-burn dream of a book, multi-layered and steeped in atmosphere and peril. I loved every page.”
— LISA JEWELL, New York Times bestselling author of Invisible Girl“[A] tantalizing whodunit.”
— Toronto Star“A stunning piece of work: one unseen murder, no gore, brilliantly drawn characters, spellbinding writing . . . we may not find a better mystery this year.”
— Winnipeg Free Press“Ruth Ware is a leading light of the new generation of detective writers.”
— The Globe and Mail“So many flawed friendships, so many promising red herrings. . . . The pages just turn themselves.”
— People“Ware develops both the reader’s doubts about and concern for Hannah as the suspense builds gradually under a masterful barrage of red herrings . . . Riveting.”
— Booklist (starred review)“This exceptional psychological thriller from Ware probes how much one can trust others—and one’s self. . . . Alternating past and present chapters build toward a gripping denouement as nicely chosen details bring each character vividly to life. This showcases Ware’s gifts to the fullest.”
— Publishers Weekly (starred review)“Ware once again demonstrates her literary claim as the 21st century’s answer to Agatha Christie with this ingeniously crafted puzzler . . . Top-drawer entertainment from a modern master of mystery.”
— Library Journal (Starred Review)“As usual with Ware, the novel is well crafted—the setting, characters, and dialogue are all engaging . . . Delightfully readable.”
— Kirkus Reviews
