Praise for The Birthday Girl

'A brilliant Christie-esque page-turner with an amazing sense of location' Catherine Cooper, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Chalet

'Suspense and intrigue abound in this gripping, claustrophobic murder mystery set on a sinister Welsh island' Roz Watkins, author of The Devil's Dice
