Review

Eerie, atmospheric, dark, gripping. Hints of Susan Hill and Stephen King. Superb. -- Will Dean, author of Dark Pines Deliciously creepy. The Binding Song is a nerve-jangling treat for fans of Mo Hayder or Stephen King. -- Mark Edwards Breathtakingly atmospheric and chilling -- Claire McGowan, author of A Savage Hunger Creepy from the word go, utterly compelling and hauntingly tragic - but I'll warn you now - you might have to sleep with the lights on. -- SJI Holliday, author of The Damselfly One of the most chilling, atmospheric debuts I've read. It was so compelling and creepy my heart beat with fear at times. -- Claire Douglas, author of Local Girl Missing Elodie Harper's first novel, set in HMP Halvergate, has become all the more possible, given what else has been going on beyond our prison walls. Plotting, pace and writing render The Binding Song a must read. -- Jon Snow The evocation of place is first class...wonderfully paced, the tension ratchets up to a very satisfying ending. A thoroughly enjoyable read. -- James Oswald, author of the Inspector McLean series Brilliant. I had shivers. -- Jenny Blackhurst, author of Before I Let You In Satisfying and thought-provoking in equal measure, and it stays in the mind long after the final page is turned. Harper, as Mr King so astutely realised, is definitely one to watch. * i Paper * I was completely engrossed. A sinister, creepy read that leaves the reader questioning everyone and trusting no-one. -- Debbie Howells, author of The Bones of You A glut of troubled souls, an eerie, atmospheric setting. Elodie Harper knows how to write a damn good horror story. -- Ali Land, author of Good Me, Bad Me A splendidly unsettling debut - a chilling mystery to be read with the lights on and your back to the wall. -- John Connolly, author of the Charlie Parker series
