The Wasp Trap

I read this in one sitting, completely gripped. A fast-paced thriller, full of twists upon twists and tension you could cut with a knife. Hugely enjoyable.

This is AMAZING...I devoured it in two compulsive sittings. 'Gripped' doesn't even come close!!

Great and vivid characterisation that kept me guessing and surprises up to the very last page, this is a highly entertaining read.

The ultimate - literal - locked room mystery, that hits you with twist after twist.

The Wasp Trap is a compelling mystery that explores the consequences of human behaviour. Whether it's falling in love, keeping secrets or committing murder, this tightly plotted page-turner reveals, piece-by-nail-biting-piece, how the sins of the past can shape our present in violent ways. Full of Edwards' trademark twists and peopled with a fascinating cast of characters, this deserves to be a smash-hit.

ELLY GRIFFITHS

This clever, compelling thriller kept me gripped and guessing from the first page to the last, packed with satisfying twists and an ending that left me chilled. An atmospheric summer read you won't be able to put down!

The Wasp Trap is a work of excellence: a reunion dinner party which swiftly unravels into a pulsating, unputdownable mystery with an ingenious twist. Riveting from start to finish.
