Page-turner? That's an understatement (Company magazine)

In Your Face

This riveting second Lily Pascale thriller should please all readers who enjoyed the first . . . It'll keep you guessing almost to the last page, so don't peek first!' South Hams Newspapers

A nail-biting triumph . . . Smart, strong and self-reliant, Lily is irresistible (Val McDermid, Manchester Evening News)

Scarlett Thomas tips Miss Marple out of her bathchair and nicks Inspector Morse's Zimmer frame. Who said crime can't be fun? (The Mirror)

Dead Clever

'With any luck, this will turn out to be the first of many novels starring Lily Pascale, a 25-year-old university lecturer with a taste for crime fiction and a talent for stumbling into trouble...Devon will never seem so safe and welcoming again' Options on DEAD CLEVER
'Debutant Scarlett Thomas has hit the ground running and leaves us eagerly anticipating Lily's next outing. DEAD CLEVER vibrates with life, trembles with death and from time to time really is dead clever' REGINALD HILL
'Sassy and confident' Mike Ripley, awarding DEAD CLEVER a crime Oscar.
An ingeniously constructed and well-paced thriller' Kingsbridge Gazette on DEAD CLEVER

Lily Pascale is . . .a sassy character full of contemporary hipness and uncurbable curiosity . . . Classic investigation with the right dash of modernity (Time Out)
