***PAULA HAWKINS' ADDICTIVE NEW THRILLER, THE BLUE HOUR IS AVAILABLE NOW*** 
 
A Slow Fire Burning, Richard & Judy Book Club Pick, Summer 2022

From the first sentence to the last, this explosive, startling novel grabs you by the throat and doesn't let go. Fiendishly clever and with a wonderful sense of place too. Go read!

I love Paula Hawkins, and this is why - A Slow Fire Burning twists and turns like a great thriller should, but it's also deep, intelligent and intensely human . . . the characters are just like people you know . . . or maybe even just like you yourself. Hawkins is proving herself a worthy 21st century heir to Barbara Vine and Patricia Highsmith.

My Book of the Month, for which I predict big things . . . An intriguing, unputdownable thriller that is as much about the compelling, damaged characters as it is about the intricate plot.

With a beautifully wrought cast of characters who are real and likeable even when they are complicated and flawed, a fantastic, picturesque London setting, twists and turns galore and exquisite prose, this is a high class read. Paula Hawkins is a genius.

Paula Hawkins's plotting is meticulous. A Slow Fire Burning is a clever onion of a book, expertly peeled.

Dark and disturbing, this twisted story with its cast of damaged characters builds to a brilliant conclusion. This one will stay with you for a long time.

Gripping and intriguing, I loved every moment of A Slow Fire Burning. Hawkins goes from strength to strength.

An unflinching look at the damage sparked by grief, loss and betrayal - and the revenge and retribution that ensues. Compelling and intricately plotted, it was its flawed and utterly credible women, and the warmth and wit of their irreverent voices, that I loved the most.

A new Paula Hawkins novel is always a cause for celebration. Her books have all the pleasing twists of the noir genre while at the same time having something to say that feels real and complex and true - her women characters feel like someone you actually know.

A Slow Fire Burning is a hugely gripping, character-based thriller, with great writing and brilliant twists. Highly recommended.

A Slow Fire Burning absolutely held me with its compelling, multi-generational cast of women and the brilliantly evoked pathos of damaged lives.

I inhaled this novel, a gripping exploration of the damage that secrets can do, Hawkins' writing draws you in from the first word and refuses to let you go until the last.

A Slow Fire Burning is Paula Hawkins at her best. Here are characters you want to spend time with, living in a world you believe in, and caught up in a plot that holds you in its grip. A thrilling read.

A truly satisfying, multi-layered maze of a mystery with a cast of flawed characters so real I'm still thinking of them days after I turned the last page.

I don't know if this isn't Paula Hawkins' best novel yet. A Slow Fire Burning is superb

I loved A Slow Fire Burning. The ingenious beginning snared me and I was held by the subtly powerful plot, such a difficult thing to do well and here, seemingly effortless. The characters were deliciously complex and utterly authentic and that is what has stayed with me the longest - their voices, their fragility, their distinct stories.

A Slow Fire Burning is a hugely satisfying, brilliantly crafted novel about the entanglement of betrayal and retaliation, the damage of loss, and how tragedy reverberates in ways we can never expect. Wickedly dark and gorgeously written, this is a novel you'll be thinking about long after the last delicious pages. Paula Hawkins is masterful.

Tense, suspenseful and wholly surprising . . . you won't be able to put it down.

The queen of the psychological thriller is back with her best book yet. It's such an addictive read . . . an absolute must-read

The kind of book that stays with you for days after . . . cleverly plotted, powerful, unputdownable and sure to be another global hit.

A treat: utterly readable, moving in parts and saturated with the kind of localised detail that made The Girl on the Train so compelling . . . [It] will be seen, rightly, as a return to form; a London book from an excellent writer on London, and a tender portrait of characters that stay in the mind long after you've finished reading.

Harks back to peak-period Barbara Vine with its beautifully drawn characters and its offbeat London setting . . . This is a subtle, haunting thriller with many twists.

Superbly told, its twists and turns reveal the slow fire burning inside each which might just destroy them. Utterly compelling.

Very cunningly structured . . . gets under the skin of a range of interesting characters.

An excellent page-turner to take on holiday

Fast-paced, highly charged and carried off with so much confidence that it is impossible to resist.

An engrossing account of trauma, at the centre are three women driven by loss, secrets and revenge.

A firecracker of a read full of unreliable narrators and big twists!

Paula's best work yet, a thoughtful, poignant interrogation of the sad, messy complicated business of human life

A multi-layered mystery, simmering with secrets, resentments and grief

Compelling and challenging, A Slow Fire Burning explores the damage caused by betrayal and loss, and how this can manifest in disturbing acts of revenge and retribution. The author's first novel for four years is worth the wait and certain to cement her status as a publishing phenomenon.

Shocking, moving, full of heart ... deeply layered and intricately plotted ... A Slow Fire Burning shows a writer at the height of her powers

This tense and irresistible read is best binged in one sitting

Intricately interwoven plots and subplots, propulsive twists and a neat finale, a deliciously easy psycho drama to hungrily tear through.

A psychological thriller that begins with a death on a canal boat and involves a cadre of shifty, damaged characters.

A multi-layered mystery simmering with secrets, resentments and griefs.

PAULA HAWKINS worked as a journalist for fifteen years before turning her hand to fiction. Born and brought up in Zimbabwe, Paula moved to London in 1989 and has lived there ever since. Her first thriller, The Girl on the Train, has been a global phenomenon, selling 23 million copies worldwide. Published in over forty languages, it has been a No.1 bestseller around the world and was a No.1 box office hit film starring Emily Blunt. 
 
Into the Water, her second stand-alone thriller, has also been a global No.1 bestseller, spending twenty weeks in the Sunday Times hardback fiction Top 10 bestseller list, and six weeks at No.1.

THE RUNAWAY SUNDAY TIMES NO.1 BESTSELLER AND THRILLER OF THE YEAR 
 
YOU DON'T KNOW HER. BUT SHE KNOWS YOU.

Really great suspense novel. Kept me up most of the night. The alcoholic narrator is dead perfect.

My vote for unreliable narrator of the year

The thriller scene will have to up its game if it's to match Hawkins this year

Hawkins's taut story roars along at the pace of, well, a high-speed train . . . a smart, searing thriller'

The Girl On The Train was so thrilling and tense and wildly unpredictable, it sucked up my entire afternoon. I simply could not put it down. Not to be missed!

Gripping, enthralling - a top-notch thriller and a compulsive read

What a group of characters, what a situation, what a book! It's Alfred Hitchcock for a new generation and a new era

Terry Hayes, bestselling author of I Am Pilgrim

Clever and compelling! Hawkins keeps the tension ratcheted high in this thoroughly engrossing tale of intersecting strangers and intimate betrayals. Kept me guessing until the very end!

A thriller that grabs you from the first page and takes you on a high speed ride full of twists and turns. Gazing out of the train window will never be the same again!

Colette McBeth, author of Precious Thing and The Life I Left Behind

A tight thriller with refreshingly realistic, nasty characterisation and an intricate weaving of narrative voices . . . A cleverly crafted piece of modern suburban noir

This is unputdownable . . . A fast, clever thriller with a flawed, entertaining heroine

Like its train, the story blasts through the stagnation of these lives in suburban London and the reader cannot help but turn the pages . . The welcome echoes of Rear Window throughout the story and its propulsive narrative make The Girl on the Train an absorbing read

There's nothing like a really excellent thriller to kick-start a new year, and this one's a beauty

a novel that grabbed me from the start and didn't let go

this year's most highly anticipated psychological thriller

If you like your books twisty and your narrators unreliable and flawed, this is for you

Wow, now I know why it has caused such a stir. Taut, tight, utterly compulsive. Once you embark you won't want to get off until the very last stop

Artfully crafted and utterly riveting. The Girl on the Train's clever structure and expert pacing will keep you perched on the edge of your seat, but it's Hawkins' deft, empathetic characterization that will leave you pondering this harrowing, thought-provoking story about the power of memory and the danger of envy.

Kimberly McCreight, New York Times-bestselling author of Reconstructing Amelia

Damn you #girlonthetrain . . . you unputdownable, you. So twisty, compassionate and gritty. Loved it. Deserves to be massive

Going to be THE book of 2015. Sexy, smart &amp; v intricately plotted

Brilliant, fast-moving, very clever. Add to your January wish-list now!

Be ready to be spell-bound . . . It's the kind of book you'll want to press into the hands of everyone you know, after you've turned the last page, just so they can share your obsession and you can relive it

Compulsively readable…. It actually hurt to put it down

JOY FIELDING, New York Times bestselling author of Now You See Her

I'm calling it now: The Girl on the Train is the next Gone Girl. Paula Hawkins' highly anticipated debut novel is a dark, gripping thriller with the shock ending you crave in a noir-ish mystery

A gripping, down-the-rabbit-hole thriller

Gone Girl fans will devour this psychological thriller . . . Hawkins' debut ends with a twist that no one - least of all its victims - have seen coming

[Paula Hawkins] pulls off a thriller's toughest trick: carefully assembling everything we think we know, until it reveals the one thing we didn't see coming

distinctive, intelligent and unpredictable

perfectly paced, from its arresting beginning to its twist ending; it's not an easy book to put down . . . what really makes The Girl on the Train such a gripping novel is Hawkins' remarkable understanding of the limits of human knowledge, and the degree to whcih memory and imagination can become confused

A complex and increasingly chilling tale courtesy of a number of first-person narratives that will wrong-foot even the most experienced of crime fiction readers

The Girl on the Train marries movie noir with novelistic trickery . . . hang on tight. You'll be surprised by what horrors lurk around the bend

achieves a sinister poetry . . . Hawkins keeps the nastiest twist for last

[L]ike Gone Girl, Hawkins' book is a highly addictive novel about a lonely divorcee who gets caught up in the disappearance of a woman whom she had been surreptitiously watching. And beyond the Gone Girl comaparisons, this book has legs of its own

Hawkins' masterful deployment of unwittingly unreliable narration to evoke the aftershocks of abuse and trauma is a powerful way of exploring women's marginalization

Springs new surprises on us . . .Pulses will be quickened

The Girl on the Train has more fun with unreliable narration than any chiller since Gone Girl

Halfway through and I can't stop reading it. My kinda thriller!

it's BLIDDY FABLISS, isn't it! A long long time since a book gripped me like this

The Girl on the Train is one of those delicious thrillers that can be devoured in four sittings, that's two return journeys on a typical train trip! There's a whiff of Agatha Christie and a dollop of Gone Girl with plenty of blind alleys that we happily wander up and get lost in. Pick it up, solve the crime and pass it on . . .

Agatha Christie meets Rear Window...a taut psychological thriller that's chockful of chilling twists.

Clever, exciting and full of twists, this is undoubtedly the cream of this year's crop

Unputdownable . . . the new literary sensation . . . nothing short of sensational

Hawkins juggles perspectives and timescales with great skill, and considerable suspense builds up along with empathy for an unusual central character.

***PAULA HAWKINS' ADDICTIVE NEW THRILLER, THE BLUE HOUR IS AVAILABLE NOW***

Paula Hawkins

Paula's very best book. An utterly compelling exploration of loneliness, obsession and jealousy, and a bloody good read. Could not put it down.

Paula Hawkins has more in common with Patricia Highsmith than just her initials . . . The Blue Hour is her finest work yet.

A tensely atmospheric and layered exploration of artistic drive and devotion; loyalty and betrayal; class, money and revenge . . . I loved it.

Incredible storytelling combined with complex characters whose true natures will keep you guessing.

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.

Set on a remote but beautiful Scottish island, the novel has much to say about creativity and relationships.

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.

‘Undoubtedly Hawkins’ best novel yet’ Observer*****In the dead of night, Grace wakes . . . 
 
The Scottish island of Eris is largely unreachable from the mainland. Cut off by the tide for twelve hours each day. No way in. No way out. The island's only house is home to Grace - content in her own isolation, guarding the island's past. 
 
But when a shocking discovery is made in an art gallery in London, Grace receives an unexpected visitor. And the secrets of Eris threaten to emerge. 
 
Suddenly, this is a very dangerous time to be alone . . .
