Book Reviews
The new Girl on The Train, which was the new Gone Girl. You get the picture. This psycho-thriller by Ali Land is set to be massive.”
Cosmopolitan (UK ed.)


A gripping tale about a teenage girl waiting to give evidence at her serial-killer mother's trial. Unsettling and unforgettable.
Heat


Uncomfortable, shocking, and totally compelling, put this to the top of your to-read pile.
Sun (UK)


Unsettling. Holds our attention from the opening page. There is so much to praise here.
Guardian (UK)


(Starred review.) A deliberate pace and a skillfully woven plot conspire to create a visceral read that’s at once a gripping psychological thriller and a devastating exploration of the damage wrought by childhood trauma.
Publishers Weekly


[H]er mother is a serial killer and a child abuser, too… [so] 15-year-old Milly is given a new identity and placed with a posh foster family. Then her foster sister starts bullying her,…and Milly's intentions to be good—unlike her mother—start to buckle. Lots of buzz for this debut novelist.
Library Journal


A sense of creeping dread drives the narrative.… Readers will be more than happy to go along for the ride and may be surprised how they feel about the conclusion, proving the unmistakable spell that Land has cast. Sly, unsettling, and impossible to put down
