Review
A superbly written novel with a brilliantly conceived and realized plot...unforgettable. -- Globe & Mail, Canada
A wonderful, creepy, twisty novel. You'll want to devour it all in one sitting -- PETER ROBINSON
So impressive I couldn't put the damned thing down... genuine surprises, twists and turns that will keep you turning pages quickly and too late into the night. -- LA Times
That rare unplug-the-phone, skip-all-meals, ignore-your-bedtime thriller. It's twisty, sharp and very, very creepy--and Det. Hazel Micallef is a perfectly original charmer
-- Gillian Flynn, author of Sharp Objects
The most enthralling, creepiest, grizzliest book I've read in years. -- CHELSEA CAIN, author of Heartsick
Unforgettable.
-- Globe & Mail, Canada
You're in the hands of a master storyteller. The Calling is a stunner - dark, surprising and utterly compelling
-- MO HAYDER
From the Publisher
Perfect for fans of Thomas Harris, Karin Slaughter or even Fargo, this is a thrilling, chilling, sinister crime novel with an all-too believable, dark villain at its core.
The killer truly is the stuff of nightmares and yet, cleverly, the gruesome and the terrifying give way to some really fun characterisation. What Inger Ash Wolfe achieves to great effect is the perfect balance of light and dark excitement. The Calling is a race against the clock, beautifully written and thoroughly absorbing from beginning to end.
It is also the first in a series featuring the very real Hazel Micallef, and readers will want to meet her again!
