Reviews / Votes
I inhaled Patient X. Such a clever, chilling and unputdownable thriller. A masterclass in plotting with a killer twist that made me want to go back to the beginning and read it all over again. The shocks keep coming until the very last page. Stunning! -- Claire Douglas The Woman in Ward 9 wrapped itself tighter and tighter around me until I could hardly breathe. A surefire hit from an author to watch. -- S E Lynes Dark, twisted and razor-sharp. You'll be racing towards a nail-biting ending and then you'll want to read it all over again. -- Lauren North So well written and with twists and turns at every juncture, this is a story that keeps you guessing right until the last word. Don't expect to sleep if you take this one to bed, because you'll be up until the sun rises. -- G. D. Wright Dripping with tension and a creeping sense of unease, The Woman in Ward 9 is an utterly gripping, mess-with-your-mind thriller infused with clever twists that will shock and enthral you right to the breathtaking denouement. Unmissable! -- A A ChaudhuriMore details
