Reviews

I'm a huge Sharon Bolton fan, and this is her best yet
Lee Child
The remoteness of the location bestows a sense of brooding tension, which is coupled to heart-stopping action sequences, making this into an extraordinary thriller. This is intelligent crime writing at its very best; not to be missed.
SHOTS eMag
Bolton's depiction of this stark, beautiful, remote wilderness is a balm to the soul in these restricted times and her complicated mystery a welcome diversion from reality.
Alison Flood, The Observer, New Review
THE SPLIT is terrific: vivid, tense and superbly paced. A masterclass in using the setting to drive the plot, in Cambridge and icy South Georgia. Highly recommended.
Jane Casey
This dark tale has more than a few twists and turns to keep you guessing.
Lisa Howells, Crime Monthly
Original, compelling and unsettling. I loved it.
Rachel Abbott
extremely entertaining [with] characters who have relationships that work

Nail-biting, heart-pounding suspense that leaps from one dizzying twist to another. THE SPLIT grips like permafrost.
