Description

In this paradise you won't like what you see . . .

When Nina's father dies, she inherits a gleaming dream vacation home in a balmy tropical paradise - one she had no idea existed. The house is extraordinary: state-of-the-art, all glass and marble. How did her sensible father ever have enough money for this? And why not tell her about it? Desperate to uncover why he hid such a big secret, she decides to visit.

Maria, once an ambitious medical student, is now a nanny for the super-rich. The money's better, and so are the destinations - like this new assignment in the British Virgin Islands. But when her wards never show, Maria begins to make herself at home, spending her days luxuriating by the pool. There's just one rule: Don't go in the basement. But her curiosity might just get the better of her. And soon, she'll wish her only worry was not getting paid.

As both women's timelines intertwine, dark secrets start to unravel and one thing quickly becomes clear - nothing could have prepared them for what they are about to encounter.

Critic Reviews

An absolute rollercoaster of a read. It will leave you breathless Jane Fallon
This book has it all: superb writing, exotic locations, mysterious academics, sinister puzzles, and brilliant characters. The perfect, unputdownable book club read. Irresistible! Will Dean
Smart and spine-tingling . . . I inhaled it Harriet Walker
Sinister, stylish and shocking. Look in the Mirror is the kind of twisting, twisted mystery I just adore Chris Whitaker
A gloriously, lushly evoked setting and an utter white-knuckle ride of a plot that took me into a heart of darkness. Catherine Steadman more than delivers on the brilliant twists and thrills I've come to expect from her writing, yet still rings the changes - this feels totally fresh and unique Lucy Foley
[A] splendidly creepy tale . . . Written with flair, and a touch of Hitchcock, it squeezes the imagination to breaking point - wonderful Daily Mail
A real page-turner Bella
An inheritance puzzle turns sinister in this beguiling, atmospheric mystery. A seductive, expertly plotted page-turner that will give you the shivers Louise Candlish
Engaging, twisty and highly original Peter James
Unpredictable and deeply unsettling, a must-read Sarah Pearse

Addictive, thrilling, intoxicating Lisa Jewell
Be prepared for a goosebumps-inducing twist in the tale Woman & Home
Hypnotic and pulse-pounding, Look in the Mirror is both a dazzling puzzle-box of a thriller and an evocative exploration of trust, power, and how well we really know the people we love. I flew through its lush prose and intricate plot in 24 hours flat-and didn't want it to end! Andrea Bartz, New York Times bestselling author of The Spare Room and We Were Never Here
Exciting, fast-paced and terrifying. This really is a locked-room thriller that has readers holding their breath at the same time as the characters! My Weekly
Look in the Mirror is an astonishing adrenaline rush of a novel, one that keeps you guessing from start to finish. Catherine Steadman has created an endlessly surprising puzzle box of a thriller in which one's most personal memories are used as tests- you fail and you die. The best novel I've read in ages Danielle Trussoni
Deliciously sinister Crime Monthly
