‘Cutting between past and present, Stopps has written a tense page-turning thriller that is also a powerful study of old age and disability’
The Times

‘I devoured Hello, My Name is MayMay is a brilliant character. Spiky, unlikeable, very funny, and the setting of the care home is superbly realised…To weave all of these threads together is a masterful feat of storytelling. The voice of May carries the book, with her acid asides, unspoken putdowns and comical observations, her regrets and frustrations, her repression and spite and love, all mixed up. She is quite wonderful’
Tim Pears, author of The West Country trilogy
