From reviews of D. M. Mitchell novels
If as a reader of psychological thrillers or even somebody interested in dipping their toe in this genre, the one piece of advice I can give is to get this book. I'm sure, that as I didn't, you will not regret it.
It is a rare treat to be able to read a well-written book. I am thrilled to have discovered this author.
I ordered this book from the free Top 100 list for my kindle, it was meant to be as an extra read on my hols if I ran out of books. It turned out to be the best book I have ever read.
Even when I wasn't reading it I was still thinking about it. Kept me guessing right to the end and the end did not disappoint
Wow! I just cannot get enough of this author. What a breath of fresh air especially to someone like me who has exhausted all her favourite authors. Come on Dan write some more! All of his books are so original and his style of writing is so smooth and descriptive that I am there right in the middle of the story. I found every book and short story impossible to put down (I have read everything I can lay my hands on) and cannot wait for his next.
This was an awesome book. Kept me totally engaged. So different from the usual mysteries I have read.
Well-written, with plenty of twists and turns. Every time I thought I had worked out who had done what, I was proved wrong, which just added to the suspense and the desire to know.
An excellent read, kept me hooked throughout. Tried guessing and double guessing the plot right until the end but still didn't get it right.
Devoured this book from cover to cover. The story was crafted in such a way that had me spellbound from the beginning. D.M. Mitchell weaves a chilling tale of mystery, and has you wondering where these characters lives will take you.
Max! A Brilliant Book. Words can't describe how good this book is. It draws you right in, has you anxious to know what happens next. It is so skilfully written that I was guessing right to the end.
