'Tightly plotted, tense and great writing. I was wholly drawn into the story ? looking forward to the next in the series!' Harriet Tyce.'A deliciously gripping thriller with an ending I didn't see coming. I raced through it. More, please!' Emily Koch.'Furiously clever plotting and characters that leap off the page. Family dynamics are explored with real humanity ? a gripping read' Rachael Blok.'Ruth's legal expertise shines through and Sarah Kellerman is a convincing and likeable heroine' Cara Hunter.'A must read! Ruth has written a dynamic, personal crime story with fantastic dialogue and an exquisite ability to demonstrate the complexities of her characters. I loved them. I hated them ? but most of all I understood them. Brilliant!' Sarah Flint.'A cracking, very well plotted, gripping thriller and really races along' Shots Magazine.'It is not from the many twists and thrills of the story that its highlights are found, but from the interactions between the subjects under these relationships where the novel truly shines' Irish Examiner.
