”'A strong, edgy debut that deserves to do well” - Clare Mackintosh

”'Marnie Riches arrives with a fully formed narrative skill that suggests decades of experience; she’s created a wonderfully idiosyncratic heroine, prone to bad judgement, and placed her in an artfully constructed novel that even incorporates cogent discussions of sexuality and gender. Ms Riches is clearly a name to watch!” - BARRY FORSHAW, author of Euro Noir and The Rough Guide to Crime Fiction
