ADVANCE READER’S COPY — UNCORRECTED PROOF
PRAISE FOR SILENT VICTIM
‘Silent Victim is fast-paced, twisty, and it chilled me to the
bone … I loved every minute of it!’
—Robert Bryndza
‘The very definition of a page-turner. Unreliable narrators
mean you never quite know where you stand until it all
builds to a richly satisfying climax. A fantastic psycho-
logical thriller.’
—John Marrs
‘Brilliantly gripping and deliciously creepy. Make sure
you clear your day as you won’t be able to put Silent
Victim down!’
—Sibel Hodge
‘Dark, shocking and utterly compelling.’
—Mel Sherratt
‘This lady writes compelling, atmospheric, unputdown-
able psychological thrillers.’
—Angela Marsons
