Emma in the Night (Walker) - Book Reviews

Book Reviews
Finally, where's Emma? If this were a better book, we would be on tenterhooks about that question throughout. Instead, there's so much else going on that solving the riddle of her disappearance sometimes shrinks into a minor matter. But Emma is not forgotten. Rest assured that the opportunity for a big, exploitative here-comes-Emma scene does not go to waste.
Janet Maslin - New York Times


(Starred review.) In this searing psychological thriller.…Walker's portrayal of the ways in which a narcissistic, self-involved mother can affect her children deepens the plot as it builds to a shocking finale.
Publishers Weekly


(Starred review.) Both twisted and twisty, this smart psychological thriller sets a new standard for unreliable narrators.
Booklist


A tense thriller explores the bond between sisters and family dynamics that give new meaning to the term "dysfunctional."…This thriller aims right for the heart and never lets go.
