THE NEW THRILLER FROM THE MASTER OF PSYCHOLOGICAL SUSPENSE 'He did
kill. Kill and kill and kill.' Tess's number one priority has
always been her three-year-old daughter Poppy. But splitting up
with Poppy's father Jason means that she cannot always be there to
keep her daughter safe. When she finds a disturbing drawing, dark
and menacing, among her daughter's brightly coloured paintings,
Tess is convinced that Poppy has witnessed something terrible.
Something that her young mind is struggling to put into words. But
no one will listen. It's only a child's drawing, isn't it? Tess
will protect Poppy, whatever the price. But when she doesn't know
what, or who, she is protecting her from, how can she possibly know
who to trust . . . ? 'An intense, brilliantly crafted thriller that
hums with menace from start to finish' TM Logan 'What an
intriguing, compelling page-turner. I ate it up in two days' Liz
Nugent Praise for Nicci French: 'Confirms Nicci French as the giant
of the genre' Erin Kelly 'Expertly paced, psychologically sharp,
thoroughly enjoyable' Louise Candlish 'Meticulously plotted,
psychologically astute' Sarah Vaughan 'A heart-wrenchingly
plausible spiral into paranoia, fear and unbearable tension.
Literally pulse-pounding' Christopher Brookmyre 'Totally absorbing.
Such great plotting and characters, but also so human and full of
insights about ordinary life and relationships. That's what always
sets Nicci French's work apart - it makes the narrative feel so
real' Sabine Durrant 'I love Nicci French's books, and with The
Unheard they are right at the top of their game. Few crime writers
can match their psychological acuity, of their ability to lead a
reader through dizzying plot twists without ever losing pace. It's
an absolute masterclass of crime writing' Kate Rhodes 'Utterly
absorbing, brilliantly plotted, twisty and original' Rachel Abbott
'Great writing, razor-sharp plotting, and powerful
characterisation. I was 100 pages in before I even drew breath, and
I defy anyone to see the ending coming' Cara Hunter 'It's Nicci
French perfection - which, as we all know, is the best kind of
perfection. So, so gripping and brilliantly clued' Sophie Hannah
'The Unheard is elegant and beguiling, masterfully crafted, with an
almost hallucinatory sense of jangling unease' C. M. Ewan 'Taut,
well-paced and frighteningly familiar, I found it difficult to put
down and hard to forget' Polly Phillips 'A mesmerising portrait of
a child under stress, observed obsessively because every tiny trait
is a possible clue to an important crime' Sunday Times 'A haunting
investigation of our darkest fears' Mail on Sunday
