Keep You Close kept me up all night long. I couldn't stop reading until I reached the final, shattering pages. Skillfully constructed and beautifully realized, Keep You Close is the next must-read for fans of The Girl on the Train * Amanda Eyre Ward * You know a psychological thriller has done its job when you get to the last page and have an urge to instantly return to the first, to work out just how you've been so thoroughly hoodwinked. In this case it's by elegant plotting, brilliant characterisation and a truly killer twist * Sunday Mirror * Whitehouse's previous novels have been singled out by Richard and Judy, and with Keep You Close the author confirms her reputation * Daily Mail * This engaging and smart tale gets right inside your head and stays there. So creepy * Heat * A tense psychological thriller * Marie Claire * Brilliantly written ... It was amazing * Sun * Haunting from the very start ... You won't be able to put this down * Best * Fans of Gone Girl will love this tense, chilling thriller * Bella * A fatal accident - or was it? A fractured friendship. A buried secret that must never surface. A killer twist. A riveting, serpentine thriller that gripped me till the end * Woman & Home * Loved Gone Girl? This is the Brit version ... Warning: you won't want to put it down * Glamour on Before We Met * Whitehouse writes marvellously in an emotionally hypersensitive, lyrical, Maggie O'Farrell sort of way * Daily Mail, on The Bed I Made * A stunning piece of modern gothic. Gripping, accomplished and, ultimately, mesmerising, it represents the arrival of a major literary talent * John Connolly on The House at Midnight *
