"Such A Quiet Place is a slow-burning locked-room mystery that's filled with secrets, lies and drama. It's beautifully written, haunting and compelling."
Such A Quiet Place is a slow-burning mystery, delving deep into the heart of a small, closed community that was shocked and rocked 18 months earlier by the murder of two residents. When I wasn't reading the book, I was thinking about it, visualising the location, in particular, thanks to the author's vivid descriptions. Hollow's Edge is a character in itself - a perfect, seemingly safe neighbourhood that's not so perfect after all - providing the ideal setting for a locked-room mystery. The verging-on-creepy characters quietly wormed their way under my skin, each one hiding secrets behind closed doors. I didn't particularly like any of them, but I could certainly feel the tension hovering in the air, suspicion building up gradually as the book progressed, each character slowly turning on each other. Beautifully written, haunting and compelling, with a narrator who may not be as relaible as they seem, Such A Quiet Place is a psychological thriller that's filled with dark secrets, lies and drama.
