Reviews

[HAL · Rating 4 out of 5]

4.5 stars for clean but chilling mystery!

Novak gives the reader a likeable main character and a well thought out plot delivered in a skillful novel. Good atmosphere, a clean story as far as swears, sex and gore goes and a surprise ending reminiscent of The Bad Seed.
Because of the amount of alcohol consumption and moral decisions, I prefer to recommend this story for younger adults and older. Maybe just preference on my part.

[Andelka · Rating 5 out of 5]

A suspenseful novel which follows a seemingly ‘normal’ death in a care home. Would highly recommend

[Jack P · Rating 5 out of 5]

An excellent autumnal read which follows a mysterious (though at first seemingly normal) death in a care home. For those who have found themselves visiting care homes before, the descriptive language and story in this book will feel very familiar.

I would highly recommend this!
