Reviews

I loved this smart, modern, brilliantly plotted journalistic thriller, which combines relentless action with wonderful writing. The End Of The Game brings vividly to life the adrenaline-fuelled highs and frightening lows of life as an undercover reporter. Watt's unstoppable heroine, and the shadowy worlds she navigates, are perfectly realised and terrifyingly plausible. A real triumph! -- Katherine Faulkner The End of the Game is a terrific next instalment in the brilliant Casey Benedict series, and also a satisfying thriller in its own right with the perfect balance of glitz, grit and heart. As tense as it is entertaining, Holly Watt's tale combines an insider's knowledge of undercover investigations and rigorous research with a real flair for story-telling - not to mention action that canters along at a pace. I loved it, from the first page to the unexpected twist and wonderfully thoughtful ending -- Charlotte Philby In Holly Watt’s most powerful thriller yet, obsessive and unstoppable journalist Casey Benedict joins forces with those whose lives and careers she has wrecked, uncovering a cynical global conspiracy involving gambling and illicit data-harvesting. Fast paced, meticulously researched and skillfully told. All too believable -- Simon Conway Praise for The Hunt and the Kill: Casey is fierce, obsessive and brilliant * Observer * Praise for The Hunt and the Kill: In the gutsy Casey [Holly Watt] has created an unstoppable yet entirely credible modern heroine * The Times * Praise for The Hunt and the Kill: Casey Benedict is just such a refreshing character – there are so few books that focus on a strong, brave, determined woman and she is all that and more. Properly intelligent, impeccably researched and utterly gripping -- Ellery Lloyd
