Praise for Valerie Keogh:
Keogh is the queen of compelling narratives and twisty plots'Jenny O'Brien
A wonderful book, I can't rate this one highly enough. If only there were ten stars, it's that good. Valerie Keogh is a master story-teller, and this is a masterful performance. Anita Waller
Keogh is no. 1 for a reason, and this is another perfect slice of domestic noir. A definite 5 stars.Keri Beevis
