'In Black Wood, SJI Holliday has created a small town whose inhabitants are full of dark secrets, rumour, betrayal and murderA touch of humour, a twist-filled plot and the writer's obvious skill in creating an unsettling and yet all too familiar backdrop, make this a hugely enjoyable page-turner. A must-read for crime fans.' - Steve Cavanagh 'Hugely satisfying twists and great characterisation, creepy and astute. I think it's going to be a hit.' - Sarah Hillary 'A fast-paced and chilling psychological thriller from an exciting new talent. If you liked Broadchurch, you'll love this.' - Mark Edwards and Louise Voss 'A deeply unsettling story of bad deeds, complex loyalties and secrets better left buried, Black Wood is a thrilling debut which grips from the very first page and doesn't let go.' - Eva Dolan 'A chilling exploration of the darkness that can hide in even the smallest of communities. A superb debut.' - David Jackson
