Tale of obsession and manipulation * Sainsbury's * Another success for this inventive writer * Sunday Telegraph * This story is thrilling from the first page . . . This book is not simply a whodunnit. The snappy, witty dialogue and clarity make it a thoroughly entertaining read. I thought I had the whole book pegged after the first chapter, but how wrong I was. Pick it up, but be warned, you won't put it down * Birmingham Post * In the world of psychological thrillers, it is rare to come across a novel that conforms absolutely to the rules of the genre at the same time as being genuinely original, satisfyingly unpredictable and totally enthralling. This is what Sophie Hannah has achieved with Hurting Distance, and she's done it with considerable style. * Yorkshire Post * This is a far better-written book than any genre label might suggest. Hannah is a respected poet and uses the fascinating motif of the sundial not only to provide the reader with clues but to underline perceptions of life, time and death. It's also significant that she won a Daphne du Maurier award. Her powerful subjects of obsession with the past, and fear in the present, testify that she has made a transition to the narrative world of that iconic writer * Independent * Hannah's second novel is a beautifully written chiller-thriller about the after-effect of rape. It grips from start to finish. . . I couldn't put it down * Literary Review * What makes this novel work so well is that more than one character has a bit of a screw loose - even the detectives on the case are grappling with some crippling personal issues - and it takes the full ride of the novel to find out who is playing whom. * Time Out * Hurting Distance confirms Sophie Hannah as a rivetingly original arrival in crime fiction * The Sunday Times * Sophie Hannah's LITTLE FACE startled the British thriller market a year ago, and her new book is another superbly creepy foray in the genre. The plots are brilliant - I couldn't see through this one at all * Guardian * Here's a psychological thriller that gets its hooks into you and refuses to let go * The Sunday Times * An utterly gripping plot, this is the standout thriller of the year * Read of the Year, Elle * Hair-raising psychological thriller * SHE * A superbly creepy, twisty thriller about obsessive love, psychological torture, and the darkest chambers of the human heart * The Times *
