Critic reviews

"What makes Michael stand out is how he invests suspense with such a strong emotional pull. No one else comes close." (Linwood Barclay)

"Never lets up on the suspense...Definitely Robotham's best to date." (Globe and Mail)

I suggest before you read this you read the first book as you need to have the back story to fully understand this book. The author has taken a very difficult storyline and has brought it to life through Evie and Cyrus. I will not say more as plenty of reviewers have said a lot about the story but I hope this is not the end of Cyrus and Evie. Please write a sequel Michael!

Excellent story

I’ve read the Majority of Michael’s books, I like him a lot but more and more often now he seems to think it’s a good idea to get Woke and all lefty. If he continues down this path I suspect he’ll put a lot of readers off. Also prefer Sean as the Narrator but Joe is a good second. Overall excellent book.

Great writer, but he’s getting increasingly Woke.
