Lee Child
Nail-biting, heart-pounding suspense that leaps from one dizzying twist to another. THE SPLIT grips like permafrost.
JP Delaney
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
extremely entertaining [with] characters who have relationships that work

Bolton's depiction of this stark, beautiful, remote wilderness is <b>a balm to the soul </b>in these restricted times and her complicated mystery<b> a welcome diversion from reality</b>.

A <b>compulsive</b> page-turner
Prima
The remoteness of the location bestows a sense of brooding tension, which is coupled to heart-stopping action sequences, making this into a<b>n extraordinary thriller</b>. This is <b>intelligent crime writing at its very best</b>; not to be missed.
