A particularly well written page-turner. * Daily Express * This transcends its thriller origins. * Observer * This riveting crime novel may be set in a girls' school but it is definitely not kids' stuff. French's prose glitters, creating a gripping mystery set in a world of shadows and tension * Sunday Mirror * Tana French is now the undisputed queen of Irish crime fiction . . . her books transcend genre. Her prose is "literary fiction", her plots are intricate, her characters and dialogue compellingly real. * Sunday Independent * French is one of the most consistently exciting crime novelists working today. The Secret Place may be her most ambitious book yet . . . completely riveting. French offers a chilling portrait of the ways in which teenage friendships can overrule any conventional morality. * Mail on Sunday * The new Tartt - the thriller that's every bit as good as The Secret History . . . Classic in the making. * Sunday Times *
