Praise for Siobhan MacDonald:

Page turner guilty of a gripping story. You could choke on the delicious venality & hypocrisy.

Just one of the creepy thrills in this page turner.

Irish Examiner

This is a terrifically dark, twisty thriller, skilfully plotted and stylishly written.

Irish Times

GUILTY is a classy and cleverly plotted psychological thriller that grips from page one, packed with well-drawn characters and delivering an absolute zinger of a twist.
