Alice Salmon
young, smart, ambitious -
with her whole life ahead of her.
Until the night she mysteriously drowns.
Nobody knows how or why.
But Alice left a few clues:
her diary, texts, emails, and presence on social media
Alice is gone but fragments of the life she led remain - and in them might lie the answer to what really happened to her - if only someone can piece it all together before it vanishes for ever . . .

What She Left is an extraordinary and bold creation
Every month brings another book billed the new Gone Girl, but we think we've found a winner
A deliciously modern take on the psychological thriller ... a shifting, mesmerising, mysterious story ... very well-written and intelligently realised, occupying a territory half way between literary novel and thriller ... a memorable debut
An absorbing, intricate and extremely original novel. It is also immensely clever and intriguing. It kept making me recall how I'd felt watching Twin Peaks. The kind of immediate shock and grief I felt for Laura Palmer was what I felt for Alice. The process of piecing together the heroine's life is so absorbing. I mourned her more and more powerfully as the story went on. What She Left is beautifully written and very emotionally involving. I hope that it garners all of the commercial and critical success it deserves
There are a million psychological thrillers out there right now, but this one stands out . . . Richmond keeps you guessing until the final pages in this compelling debut
Strikingly modern
A tight, clever, compelling story ... the reader must act as detective, rebuilding Alice Salmon from the digital footprint she leaves behind
A clever, imaginative and entertaining attempt to immerse the whodunit in the world of social media
An ingeniously original premise ... addictive
