Catherine Cooper, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Chalet: ‘A brilliant Christie-esque page-turner with an amazing sense of location. Simon McCleave, author of The Dark Tide: ‘A pitch-perfect start to a new thriller series. Michael Wood, author of Silent Victim: ‘There is more than a whiff of Agatha Christie here, which made The Birthday Girl so satisfyingly compelling that I read into the small hours to finish it. Alis Hawkins, author of A Bitter Remedy: ‘Suspense and intrigue abound in this gripping, claustrophobic murder mystery set on a sinister Welsh island. Roz Watkins, author of The Devils Dice: ‘Takes the classic Christie-esque trope of a remote location and a closed circle of suspects and reinvents it for the 21st Century, weaving a tale of murder, madness, and revenge. I absolutely loved it.’ Amanda Mason, author of The Hiding Place: ‘Sharp, elegantly written, and dripping with suspense. A wonderfully crafted ‘closed room mystery that had me turning the pages at record speed. J. A. Cor.
