"Written with a real instinct for building suspense, this book could rival many an adult crime novelist for sheer tension": The Glasgow Herald

"This dark chilling tale is greatly enhanced by the polished character descriptions and realistic dialogue:  a very entertaining thriller dealing with modern issues but with a touch of the paranormal to give it a scent of evil": The Independent:

Nominated for the Angus Book Award
