What They're Saying
Critics Review
A sardonic and unusual piece. - DAILY EXPRESS
Fyfield is on fine form in this gripping psychological thriller. - DAILY MIRRORA tense, atmospheric read, crackling with the static of paranoia. Fyfield’s characters are not safe within their homes because they are not safe within themselves, and it is this depth of characterisation, coupled with moral ambivalence, that sets her work apart from other crime fiction. - GUARDIANSAFER THAN HOUSES is a deeply satisfying read… powerfully drawn characters and compelling tension. - INDEPENDENTAbout The Author
