The Twyford Code by Janice Hallett
The dazzling new bestseller from the author of The Appeal.
Even better [than The Appeal].. This fiendishly clever book manages to be both tricksy and surprisingly moving * Guardian *
Hallett swoops in with a bravura final section that sheds new light on everything you've read before and will leave you amazed at her ingenuity. It's all right there in the code * New York Times *
Hallett has aced it... Every page is a joy, with laugh-out-loud moments... The startling final reveal crowns Hallett as the queen of unreliable narrators * Sunday Times *
A tour de force - a genuinely complex puzzle with real clues to be solved... A mind-bending, heartwarming mystery that is not to be missed * Observer *
A big-hearted, ingeniously constructed mystery... A book that will engage your emotions as much as your wits * Sunday Express *
A "cancelled" book is at the heart of Hallett's much-acclaimed, complex novel. Elegant, puzzling metafictional writing that pleasurably tasks readers with extricating the truth * Financial Times *
A thoroughly unusual thriller * Daily Mail *
I came for the acrostics and stayed for the rich characterisation and sly humour * Telegraph *
A brilliantly clever, deceptive mystery with a unique twist * Heat *
If you love a puzzle, you'll enjoy this novel packed full of mystery and intrigue. Perfect for Richard Osman and SJ Bennett fans * Yours *
Ingenious * Good Housekeeping *
Hallett is a deft storyteller, and her latest combines humor and pathos... will keep readers in suspense until the final page * Washington Post *
