Reviews

'Hooked me from page one. This twisty, smart thriller is brimming with complex characters, a page-turning plot and big questions of science, nature, marriage and murder. Matthew Sullivan expertly blends fact, fable and the evocative setting of Soap Lake in rural Washington state to create a spellbinding novel—I adored it.' Tara Conklin, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Romantics 'A shimmering, shadowy tarn of a mystery, rippling with complex heroines, David Lynchian townspeople, sinister bogeymen (TreeTop is terrifying!), and a spectacularly rich storyline set in smalltown Washington State. Fans of Tana French, Jess Walter, and Kate Atkinson will absolutely love this novel.' Sharma Shields, author of The Sasquatch Hunter's Almanac 'Sinister' The Critic Praise for the author ‘This book ticked all the boxes for me: an engaging heroine, an intriguing premise, interesting characters and a plot that involved books, readers and the very darkest human passions. A fantastic, assured debut.’ Elly Griffiths, bestselling author of The Crossing Places ‘There is a clever, erudite puzzle plot in this bookish mystery, along with whip-smart writing. Matthew Sullivan’s debut is stylish and entertaining.’ Ellen Crosby, author of The Champagne Conspiracy 'A cracking read' Daily Mail
