Eerily haunting with the delicious sense of danger which Nuala Ellwood is so good at creating

The House on The Lake is so tautly written, I literally couldn't put it down. Nuala Ellwood writes like a dream

Creepy and deliciously atmospheric, this page-turner has it all - twists and turns and a powerful emotional punch. Highly recommend

Male violence in all its forms is at the heart of Jessica Moor's confident and skilful debut

A gripping, dark domestic drama with motherhood at its heart. Beautifully written and emotionally charged, the characters leaped off the page and stayed with me.

A beautiful and heart-breaking story that I can’t stop thinking about. Simply stunning.

This is domestic noir as it's meant to be done; riveting and beautifully written.

Intriguing, heartbreaking and deftly drawn, Keep Him Close is a mystery novel with a beautiful character study at its heart.

A beautifully written novel with a cast of richly drawn characters, and a plot that grows ever more menacing as it twists to its powerful, unexpected conclusion.

Keep Him Close is a compelling and deftly plotted read, exploring complex dynamics with sensitivity and empathy.

I loved that at the core of the novel's mystery was these mothers' love and belief in their sons...A tense, taut page turner filled to the brim with emotion.

A hugely readable and assured thriller about what could be every parent’s nightmare.

A beautifully moving novel about acceptance and forgiveness.

I loved this book. Wonderful characterisation and tense plotting. Bravo!

Keenly researched, steeped in real life and dripping with tension, this book is a must-read for any fan of the genre.

Heart-wrenching and page-turning, Keep Him Close delivers and then some.

The master of smoke and mirrors fiction

Exceptional story-telling, well drawn and vivid characterisation and a fast-paced and riveting plotline carry the reader along open mouthed as layer upon layer is peeled back to reveal the truth. I needed this diversion from grim reality and now feel much better for it. Highly recommended.

Coben’s USP is how families are torn apart by secrets. He is a clever plotter, too, always pulling the rug from under your feet.

Coben is like a skilled magician saving the best, most stunning trick for the very end.

Coben can always be relied on to generate thrills from the simplest premises

Dramatic and tightly plotted.

Harlan Coben is a master at weaving compelling thrillers, but even by his high standards, The Boy From the Woods sounds like a haunting ride.

Harlan Coben rose to worldwide attention recently for his hit Netflix show The Stranger. Many of you would have already been familiar with his work prior to this. Harlan Coben’s back catalogue is very impressive. We’ve read pretty much every Harlan Coben novel and let us tell you, he never lets you down. If you’re looking for a meaty thriller which is equal parts surprising and well-written, look no further.

From the bestselling author and creator of the hit Netflix drama The Stranger, Harlan Coben, The Boy from The Woods tells the story of Wilde, found thirty years ago in the New Jersey backwoods.

Coben's character creation is superb. Both Wilde and Hester are a joy to discover and each one of the supporting cast are equally well crafted […]The Boy From The Woods is a fabulous read, I devoured it. It's pacy and thrilling, filled with fabulous characters and a plot that is unrelenting. I now know just why Coben is at the top of his field. Highly recommended from me.

Twisty, packed with mystery and intrigue […] Now is the perfect time to read for escapism

Coben is the best-selling author behind the utterly compelling Netflix drama The Stranger, and his latest offering is equally potent […] A gloriously grisly page-turner with some excellent chicanes and twists.

This is another page turner from Coben who every time manages to pull the cat out of the bag and deliver an ending that isn't expected. Sublime.

Coben paints a rich, multi-layered picture of suburban life […] The story is involving, contemporary and Coben expertly peels back the layers with consummate skill to reveal an intricate and twisted tale that’s well worth the read[…] I highly recommend this terrifically unusual and well-paced thriller.
