They All Fall Down

LoveReading Says

This smart, sharp psychological page-turner will keep crime and thriller fans gripped for ‘just’ one more chapter until the early hours. It’s a riveting, read-in-one-sitting rollercoaster fuelled by engrossing emotional suspense. Hannah is in a high-suicide-risk psychiatric clinic, so when the death of a fellow patient is put down to her having cut her own wrists “with a shard of caramelized sugar” shortly after the suicide of another patient, no one suspects that foul play is afoot.

No one except Hannah, that is. “It’s not true”, she asserts, feeling just as frightened of being right as she is of being wrong. If she’s right, maybe she’ll be the next to fall, while being wrong might mean she’s “as crazy as they all think I am”. When more patients die, it seems that everyone’s at risk, and everyone’s a suspect.

But who will believe her? The tension mounts to intense extremes as the story snakes in entirely unexpected directions. The twist in this tale is sublimely clever, the characters are consummately well-formed, and this is a masterwork of the genre. ~ Joanne Owen

Joanne Owen’s lifelong love of reading and writing began when she was growing up in Pembrokeshire, and very much wished that witches (and Mrs Pepperpot) were real.
