"Outstanding...an absorbing thriller told with heart and wit. Morality and ambition clash on a journey full of twists as [this] takes readers from the cut-throat media landscape to a sleepy town full of secrets." (Jane Harper, best-selling author of The Dry and Force of Nature)
"A hugely-original premise, a guilt-ridden protagonist, a plot that won't lie down. A great debut." (Chris Hammer, author of Scrublands)
