Reviews

An excellent detective novel. The opening scene is superb, and sets up the story beautifully. Gripping, multi-layered and fresh. Terrific A brilliant premise, perfectly executed. A genuine page turner - it kept me guessing right until the end. A riveting new book, with such vivid characters An absolute gem - I was hooked from the first page The first scene was brilliantly terrifying and the rest of the novel lived up to the strong opening - I had no idea who the killer was and it was superbly plotted. I loved the characters, too, especially the investigating team. I can see that this series is going to be a huge hit. A cold blooded chiller from first page to last. I loved She Lies In Wait, Watching From The Dark is even better You'll be reluctant to put this book down until you've unravelled all its dark plot twists Lodge writes perceptively about rivalries between young women, showing how even the best-intended relationships can become toxic A satisfyingly complex whodunnit that will keep readers gripped and baffled in equal measure This page-turner of a novel is intricately and intelligently plotted, and keeps you guessing right up to its gripping close I really loved this. Jonah Sheens is a well-drawn and likeable detective, and what I like about Gytha's writing is that she thinks outside the box Expand reviews
