Once the hideaway of Vanessa, a famous artist whose husband disappeared twenty years ago.

Paula Hawkins, Sunday Times bestseller, October 2024
Paula's very best book. An utterly compelling exploration of loneliness, obsession and jealousy, and a bloody good read. Could not put it down. * LIZ NUGENT *
Paula Hawkins has more in common with Patricia Highsmith than just her initials . . . The Blue Hour is her finest work yet. * JOHN BOYNE *
An addictive, exhilarating book. * DONAL RYAN *
A tensely atmospheric andlayered exploration of artistic drive and devotion; loyalty and betrayal; class, money and revenge . . . I loved it. * CHARLOTTE WOOD *
Incredible storytelling combined with complex characters whose true natures will keep you guessing. * Heat *
An atmospheric, stylish puzzle box of a thriller with a deliciously inventive premise. I love a locked-room mystery - or, in this case, a locked-island mystery - and Paula Hawkins has delivered a truly exceptional one. * LIZ MOORE *
Set on a remote but beautiful Scottish island, the novel has much to say about creativity and relationships. * Literary Review *
I LOVED this art-world-set thriller with its stately-home Saltburn vibe. . . Hawkins weaves a skilful tale about class and privilege and keeps up the tension until the end. * The Daily Mail *
