Stuart Neville
"An action packed thriller, the mid-way twist in this book will leave you as breathless as several victims on the pages of this relentlessly-paced and unexpectedly moving story as the reader is propelled towards the truly shocking conclusion. Bravo Stuart Neville! Utterly brilliant."

"Louise Candlish has excelled again with this story of a coastal community butting heads with the big city blow-ins. Hugely entertaining, this book is so full of tension and intrigue, it was a joy to read and I absolutely loved it. Brava!"
