'It is some time since I have been so completely absorbed and taken out of myself . . . This is Ali Knight's second book and it is hard to imagine how she can beat it, but I hope to goodness that she does!
'Tightly-plotted, high-pitched psychological thriller . . . what bright new talent Ali Knight does so successfully, and with a welcome fresh eye, is broach the great divide between public and private space.' ****
A clever thriller with a heartfelt depiction of an abusive marriage, this is a gripping read
This thriller will have you on the edge of your seat desperate to read more. Perfect for fans of James Patterson . . . I was left completely shocked with the twist at the end.
Jo Nesbo, Stephen King, Patricia Cornwell and Ali Knight
'A psychological drama that grips from first to last'
Top notch suspense! From first page to last, Knight delivers as she plunges an ordinary married couple into a steadily growing horror of past lies, fresh betrayals and murderous revenge.
'A really enjoyable read.'
'Crackles from first page to last.'
With razor-sharp suspense from page one, Ali Knight injects tension with the precision of a surgeon. Reminiscent of Fatal Attraction with a chilling twist. Highly recommended.
Praise for THE FIRST CUT
[A] suspenseful Hitchcockian tale . . . [one of the] top ten crime books to take on holiday
The resourceful self-reliance of the imperilled heroine Nicky . . . the large cast and complicated happenings make an intriguing . . . read and Ali Knight writes well.
Praise for WINK MURDER
A tight-plotted, too-close-for-comfort thriller that races to the finish. Pacey and disquieting, Knight's debut hints she might be a successor to Sophie Hannah's queen of suspense crown.
'A fast-paced whodunit.'
A powerful portrayal of an abusive marriage and an utterly engrossing tale of corruption and obsession
