About this title

Review:

I started IN A DARK, DARK WOOD on an airplane, kept dipping into it whenever I was left alone, devoured another big chunk on the flight home, and after that surrendered myself to it until the last revelation had bloomed, the final surprise had exploded, and the bittersweet conclusive turn had folded the final page. Ruth Ware has written an exciting, and in fact amazing book that never stops circling around behind the reader and clapping its cold hands over her eyes.--Peter Straub, New York Times bestselling author

I raced through this, totally unable to put it down...Dark, smart and compulsive.--Nicci Cloke, author of Lay Me Down

"An English psychological thriller...compared to Gone Girl and Girl on the Train."--Steve Bennett "My San Antonio "

"Likely to be the next Gone Girl."--Elizabeth Willse "Surrounded by Books "

"So gripping. So glad my hen days are behind me. It's going to be huge."--Tamar Cohen, author of Dying for Christmas and The Broken

"If the premise might be the sort that Agatha Christie would have toyed with had she been a 21st-century graduate, Ware's analysis of the power-games some women revel in - and the toxicity in the undertow of some female friendships - is more reminiscent of Sophie Hannah, Christobel Kent, or even Gillian Flynn and Harriet Lane."--Patricia Nicol "Independent "

"The next Girl on the Train...Ware hews [close] to the new genre of twisty-mystery women's books."--Vulture

"Who pulls a gun at a bachelorette party? The answers are unveiled with Gillian Flynn-style trickery."--O Magazine

"WARNING: This book is hot. Do not pick it up late at night or if you are in a dark, dark wood...Ruth Ware has a gift. This British author's first foray into fiction is a hit...it delivers a punch and keeps you guessing--an ideal August psychodrama that reminds us why mysteries remain such fun--except at night."--The New York Journal of Books

"An enchantingly unsettling thriller with mysterious characters and a classically spooky setting."--Shelf Awareness

Book Description:

The next big thing in crime fiction - does what for friendships what Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train did for marriages
