The Life I Left Behind by Colette Mcbeth
She's dead but she's the only one who knows what really happened; What your friends have said. What the police missed. Who attacked you. So if you want the truth who else are you going to turn to?
One of the best books of the year * Sun *
This intriguing and twisty thriller kept me reading into the night * Woman & Home *
A creepy and clever thriller * Fabulous *
McBeth's is a much better realisation of the same theme [as The Lovely Bones] and, psychologically, by far the more interesting accomplishment * Independent *
If a more affecting psychological thriller is published this year, it will be a very good book indeed * Irish Times *
The Life I Left Behind is a rare thing; a well-paced, meticulously-researched thriller which is not just gripping but compassionate, too -- Paula Hawkins, author of THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN
Absolutely amazingGrip-Lit of the highest order. Brilliant. -- Marian Keyes
'An excellent storyteller... Precious Thing is more than deserving of a place on the modern thriller bookshelf' * Sunday Express *
'An interesting and original page-turner' * Literary Review *
'A cleverly crafted tale... If you're a fan of Gone Girl, you'll love this' * Sunday Mirror *
'Precious Thing is one of my top five books of 2013. Truthfully, I would go on for hours about what I loved about this psychologically disturbing, thoroughly readable, cleverly written book' * Fabulousmag.co.uk *
'A great debut, menacing, gripping and full of twists and surprises... This is one of those incredibly compelling stories that simply drags you along, whether you like it or not. Highly recommended' * Lovereading.co.uk *
Exceptional...so beautifully written and a gripping story -- Clare Mackintosh, author of I LET YOU GO
