Recensione

“A real page-turner.” (Today Show)

“A sharp-edged thriller . . . Sexy suspense.” (New York Daily News)

“Murder and lust make for a page-turner.” (Harper's Bazaar)

“Kate White delivers a top-notch, nail-biting thriller. . . . Lake Warren’s personal complications make her a compelling character, and the nonstop action leads to a deliciously scary conclusion.” (Romantic Times)

“A stand-alone thriller that generates a real sense of jeopardy while avoiding clichés. . . . A subplot about the clinic’s questionable practices adds to the tension, but doesn’t detract from the main plot with its myriad twists.” (Publishers Weekly)

“In her first stand-alone thriller, White effectively blends mommy-lit issues with murder and suspense. . . . The mix of family pressures and murderous suspense makes this a page-turner.” (Library Journal)

“A nerve-jangling adrenaline rush! From the first sentence to the last, Kate White catapults you into a tense vortex of deceit, danger, and double-crosses, where one wrong word is all it takes to lose everything. When in doubt, hush...” (Lisa Gardner, author of The Neighbor)

“Dark, sexy, and smart, HUSH is a pulse-pounding thriller that’s both chilling and provocative. Once you start reading, you won’t be able to stop - or guess who or why - until the very end. A stunningly good read.” (Linda Fairstein, author of Hell Gate)

“Utterly compelling . . . A classic page turner.” (Karin Slaughter, author of Undone)

“Sexy and suspenseful, Kate White’s HUSH is a true page-turner. The subtle twists and turns on the glamorous streets of New York City are going to thrill White’s longtime fans and earn her a legion of brand new readers. A clever, fast-paced thriller!” (Lisa Unger, author of Die for You and Beautiful Lies)
