Afterwards - Reviews

“As with Lupton’s debut SISTER, AFTERWARDS has bestseller written all over it. She has found a way of combining searing emotion with page-turning plotting.”

Daily Mirror

“A bold, impossible-to-categorize, and riveting blend of psychological suspense, literary thriller and the paranormal … wickedly good.”

Seattle Times

“In a LOVELY BONES-style conceit … Lupton works her theme of the corrosive effects of ambition with insight and gusto.”

The Guardian

“I became insanely gripped … The word compelling is used lightly of mystery and crime novels this one will define it for you.”

Daily Mail

“Superb, a great read and cliff hanger until the very end. Recommended to fans of the genre.”

Laisha

“It is rare to encounter writing that grips you not only because of what is about to happen in the following paragraph, but because the current paragraph is painfully beautiful.”
