Lucy Foley

The Last Time I Saw Her Alive is an evocative, atmospheric, and deeply satisfying novel. I was thoroughly drawn in by Rain and her world, acutely feeling all the push and pull of her home, the beauty of the wild Cotswolds landscape, and the danger lurking beneath the surface. Stylish and heartfelt, I loved it!

Emylia Hall

The Last Time I Saw Her Alive is, simply, sensational; both fiendishly compelling and jaw-droppingly beautiful. Kate Riordan has a unique and wonderful talent for complex characters, almost unbearable suspense and wildly evocative, haunting settings. I was blown away by this novel

Rosie Walsh

Both a twisty thriller teeming with family secrets and a gorgeously written exploration of childhood ghosts, truths that won’t stay hidden and the many shapes haunting can take, The Last Time I Saw Her Alive is Kate Riordan at her finest. With all the haunting beauty of Midsommar and the intoxicating mystery of The God of the Woods, this story will creep under your skin and into your heart, right to the breathtaking conclusion. Wonderful

Emma Stonex

Atmospheric, compelling and thrumming with intrigue, I was captivated from the opening line of The Last Time I Saw Her Alive. With its lyrical prose and evocative country setting it’s a must for readers craving the next Broken Country

Lisa Timoney

The Last Time I Saw Her Alive is more than a thriller. It is a world, a beautifully written mystery within a mystery, packed with vivid characters that feel like real people. Glued from first page till last, I read to figure out what happened, how, and to whom, my heart clenched all the while in the hope that Rain could answer the biggest question of all: that of her very identity

The Wicker Man meets the Cotswolds Bohemian set in this deliciously twisty fable of fractured truth and false memory
