Darkside by Belinda Bauer
FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF SNAP 'Bauer's great gift is her ability to surprise the reader' Daily Telegraph THE QUESTION IS: WHO IS HUNTING WHO? In a small village where no stranger goes unnoticed, a local woman has been murdered in her bed. This is PC Jonas Holly's first murder investigation. But he is distracted by anonymous messages that seem to come from the killer . . . Is Jonas going to be able to solve the crime, whilst being taunted by a psychopath? ___ 'Impressively original and convincing' Sophie Hannah Readers are gripped by Darkside: 'A captivating read which I couldn't put down' ***** 'Brilliant, clever, crime fiction' ***** 'Gripping and entertaining' *****Bauer has shifted the boundaries of what makes a truly gripping, terrifying thriller * Daily Mirror *
Bauer takes astonishing risks but - like a brilliant ski-jumper - arcs down to the perfect landing * Independent *
She can do tragic brilliantly and she can do grim, but every now and then humour breaks into the tale - and she does that almost best of all * Guardian *
I would press this one on anyone who loves Kate Atkinson, Bauer really is that good -- ALICE O'KEEFFE * Bookseller *
