Connie is a thriller which brilliantly combines emotional depth of character with a savage motive for murder. The result is unnerving but hugely satisfying. Duckworth's best novel yet * LV Matthews *
A chilling, compulsive dive into the mind of a killer - and the woman determined to uncover the truth. Connie is a haunting, intricately drawn portrait of trauma and female rage. I devoured it. Duckworth has never been better * Emily Freud *
Suitably unsettling and heartbreaking, I couldn't put Connie down. I read it in 2 days! Gripping and multi-layered * Kristina Thornton *
This is Charlotte Duckworth at her peak: an expertly crafted, searingly insightful character study that unravels its secrets as elegantly as a fine silk scarf. With an assured hand, Duckworth takes a scalpel to society, deftly peeling back the layers to reveal what drives people to do despicable things, and in doing so finds humanity in the darkest of places. Connie Cross is at once brittle and fragile, vulnerable and diabolical; an utterly captivating anti heroine. * Lizzy Barber *
