Bolton rules the world of psychological thrillers

Ingenious

Nail-biting, spine-tingling, up-till-4a.m.-because-you-need-to-know-how-it-finishes tension!

Close-to-the-bone red herrings skillfully strewn across the detectives’ paths, convincing cop-shop procedure, and perceptively drawn secondary characters help push this contemporary crime novel ahead of the pack . . . Bolton looks deep into the lost-soul madness of a killer and makes her vision all too horribly real.

Bolton sets aside the gothic-tinged atmosphere of her early novels in favor of a more visceral sensibility, exerting immediate and continuing pull by stepping in and out of an unnamed killer’s mind . . . a nail-biting thriller

An all-round hit; scary, twisty and intense

Scared the hell out of me!

... an extremely deep and involved plot that jumps from character to character and keeps them on their toes at all times ... the solid writing from this new author will keep their target reader more than intrigued

Part Lisbeth Salander, part Jason Bourne, Munroe comes out swinging hard again. . . . A gritty, suspenseful novel.
