Praise for this book

"A terrifically entertaining legal drama and an unsettling cautionary tale for any woman considering entering politics - 5 stars." - Louise Candlish

"Wow! Vaughan's best book yet, which is saying something. REPUTATION pulls off being both a necessary must-read novel about women in public life - the trolls, the threats, the misogyny - and an absolute masterclass in storytelling with some of the best court scenes I've ever read. Vaughan slips under the skin of her characters so deftly, and with such skill and compassion, I lived every page. Riveting. Shocking. Unbelievably good. I loved it." - Eve Chase

"I absolutely adored the book. I love the tone of Sarah's writing, which is so elegant and pared back, and I love the setting, which is completely compelling and like looking behind the curtain. But what I most loved was what she had to say about that insidious fear we all feel as women and the different types of violence that sparks this. It's a clever, timely book, which shows how disastrous consequences can spiral from a network of female fear and oppression." - Araminta Hall

"REPUTATION blew me away. It's a masterpiece - breathtakingly brilliant, powerful, gripping and with an incredibly important message about the treatment of women in the public eye. I binge read it as I couldn't bear to put it down. It's simply phenomenal - a work of sheer genius. I'm sure it will be a runaway hit and deservedly so." - Sarah J Harris

"Once again, Sarah Vaughan has distilled the zeitgeist into a pulse-racing thriller. Gripping all the way." - Erin Kelly

"Sarah Vaughan has done it again. Superb." - Shari Lapeña

"Timely, necessary, and gripping, do not miss out on REPUTATION. With her trademark acuity and empathy, Sarah Vaughan skillfully dissects the pressures facing women in both public life and private while delivering an absolute nail-biter of a novel. It's a must-read for 2022." - Gilly MacMillan

"This deep dive into the world of the political woman and the dangers behind the facade is timely and compelling." - Jane Shemilt
