Reviews/Praise

"Terrifying... one of the most memorable genre villains since Hannibal Lecter." —Wall Street Journal

"Blanchard excels at portraying a multilayered main character who’s damaged but strong, and at sending readers chasing after red herrings. The closing twist, a complete surprise, caps a tale that is as absorbing as it is emotional and thought provoking. This is one for readers of Patricia Cornwell’s Dr. Kay Scarpetta novels...each starring a woman in the field of medicine who cares deeply about her job and about getting justice for those who’ve been wronged." —Booklist

"Riveting thriller" —Publishers Weekly
