The gripping Sunday Times top ten bestseller, Book of the Month in the Guardian, Grazia and Observer, longlisted for the Theakston Old Peculiar Crime Novel of the Year. 'Irresistible, a compelling and nuanced psychological thriller suffused with small town prejudice and dark family secrets.**' PAULA HAWKINS, author of bestselling The Girl on the Train '**Conjuring up... **Twin Peaks and Gillian Flynn's Sharp Objects' STYLIST '**One of the most exciting debuts of the year' SUNDAY EXPRESS ________________________________________________ When Emma leaves her friend Abi at a party in the woods, she believes that their lives are just beginning. Many things will happen that night, but Emma will never see her friend again. Yet what happens next in Whistling Ridge is so much more than the story of a missing girl. It's a story of surprises and secrets, regrets and rage, love and lies. Abi's disappearance cracks the surface of this small town, peeling away the layers to reveal a darkness at the heart of the community. Even within Abi's own family there are questions to be asked - of the older brother whom Abi betrayed, of the younger sibling who hides his wounds, of her mother and her father - both in thrall to the fiery preacher who has an unsettling grasp on the town. And then there is Rat, the outsider, whose exciting presence is a catalyst for change. Anything could happen in a tinder-box like Whistling Ridge. All it will take is just one spark...the truth of what happened that night at the Tall Bones.... ______________________________________ Praise for TALL BONES: 'Compelling, beautifully nuanced, brilliant' SJ WATSON, bestselling author of Before I Go to Sleep 'Spellbinding and darkly beautiful...a stunning debut' WOMEN & HOME 'Haunting... small-town intrigue, exquisitely drawn' JANE HARPER, bestselling author of The Dry 'As atmospheric as it gets... a stunning debut that delivers on every level' RENEE KNIGHT, bestselling author of Disclaimer 'Its portrait of small-town intrigue is scarily credible.
