<b>Praise for HAVEN'T THEY GROWN</b>

:

From the impossible premise to its chilling conclusion, Haven't They Grown is a masterpiece in plotting. Hannah's writing is darkly funny and brilliantly observed - I adore her books.

Clare Mackintosh

SO clever, so gripping: Hannah asks her readers an impossible question and answers it with style. I tore through Haven't They Grown. Brilliant characters and a corker of an ending. Bravo!

Ingenious... delivers twists and turns at every corner

Heat

The twists and turns in this weird psychological thriller are entertaining and a bit creepy at times. You'll finish this book wondering what the hell just happened!...an entertaining read that I would highly recommend

My Weekly

Hannah is in a league of her own... this twist-packed, always surprising thriller will keep you gripped to the satisfying conclusion

Peterborough Telegraph

Hannah is one of our most courageous crime writers, a literary high-wire artist who sets herself the toughest of challenges in inventing inexplicable mysteries that she must create plausible solutions for... she pulls it off beautifully

Sunday Express S Magazine

Hannah has always excelled at the knotty, impossible twist and Haven't They Grown is as complex and sinister as ever

The Observer, Thrillers of the Month review

If you like your mysteries extremely twisty, this could be for you

Women's Weekly

With it's jaw-dropping hook, twisting plot and ingenious conclusion, Haven't They Grown, is a galloping read that will have you rattling through the pages, desperate to solve the mysterious puzzle at its heart

The Herald

Engaging and dynamic...an interesting story that leads to a dramatic face off

Daily Record

Hannah is becoming something of a national treasure... rich and nuanced

The Financial Times

fiendishly clever

Daily Mail

Prepare for sleep deprivation!

Red

Sophie Hannah, who can twist a conventional plot until it screams for mercy, puts an existential spin on the domestic-suspense novel

New York Times

Hannah is becoming something of a national treasure in the UK . . . The plotting here is more outrageous than usual for Hannah, and might even stretch the reader's ability to suspend disbelief. But few will complain, given her customary rich and nuanced characterisation.

RedAll Beth has to do is drive her son to his Under-14s away match, watch him play, and bring him home.Just because she knows that her former best friend lives near the football ground, that doesn't mean she has to drive past her house and try to catch a glimpse of her. Why would Beth do that, and risk dredging up painful memories? She hasn't seen Flora Braid for twelve years.But she can't resist. She parks outside Flora's house and watches from across the road as Flora and her children, Thomas and Emily, step out of the car. Except...There's something terribly wrong.Flora looks the same, only older - just as Beth would have expected. It's the children that are the problem. Twelve years ago, Thomas and Emily Braid were five and three years old. Today, they look precisely as they did then. They are still five and three. They are Thomas and Emily without a doubt - Beth hears Flora call them by their names - but they haven't changed at all.They are no taller, no older.Why haven't they grown?
