Incredible. Just incredible. Belinda Bauer is a genius. * Clare Mackintosh, author of I LET YOU GO *
...all the texture and depth of a classic crime thriller... This increasingly taut thriller is page-clawing material. * Stuart Winter, Daily Express *

The Beautiful Dead will keep you up all night. * Shari Lapena, author of THE COUPLE NEXT DOOR *
Excellent tension. * The Times *
...a book you'll read in one go after making sure every door is locked. * Red *
Over half a dozen novels, Belinda Bauer has staked a claim to the gruesome, spectacular and bizarre... trademark ingenuity. * Sunday Times *
A masterclass in storytelling. Crime novels don't get much better than this. I loved it * C L Taylor, author of THE ACCIDENT *
Belinda Bauer is the connoisseur of crime novels. * ES Best, Evening Standard *
...the formidably talented Belinda Bauer. From the award-winning Blacklands onwards, she has shown a plucky willingness to take the crime novel into completely unexpected territory, and a sure-fire grasp of how to unsettle the reader. Bauer aficionados need not hesitate; she's on typically scabrous form here. -- Barry Forshaw * FT *
