Book Reviews
Her plots are ingenious — she’s a writer in complete command of her material — and it’s O.K. if you haven’t quite kept up. She keeps you puzzled and intrigued, right until the end.
New York Times Book Review


Hannah… excels at creating credible plot twists; the two in Keep Her Safe — one at the climax, one at the denouement — evoke gasps. Deftly played and instantly addictive, Hannah’s latest novel reaffirms her excellence and further elevates her stature.
Richmond Times Dispatch


Sophie Hannah…has clearly mastered the psychological methodology [of] Gillian Flynn or Tana French. Her unreliable narrator commands our attention and even our sympathy.
NPR


[U]necessarily complex…. The present-day plot devolves into a… free-for-all, with Cara inexplicably at the center. Hannah, known for her labyrinthine plots, loses her way early on.
Publishers Weekly


As Lisa Gardner says, Hannah puts "the psycho in psychological suspense," and here's her first novel set in America, specifically, sun-bleached Arizona.
Library Journal


(Starred review.) Hannah [takes]all the reassuring certitudes mystery novels take for granted and demonstrate how much fun it is to toss them overboard. There's no point in objecting to the coincidences and implausibilities required to launch this brilliant nightmare: resistance is futile.
