Reviews

Jo Callaghan, author of IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE
Funny, tense and insightful, Laura Marshall has once again written a psychological thriller for our times . . . With vivid characters and a compelling plot, this had me turning the pages until the wee hours - I loved it
Nikki Smith, author of THE BEACH PARTY
Laura Marshall has taken a dark scenario involving elderly parents that most people will identify with and combines it with such brilliant humour that I laughed out loud on more than one occasion. A fresh and very funny thriller, I loved it
Erin Kelly, author of THE SKELETON KEY
A GOOD PLACE TO HIDE A BODY shocks and grips from the very first page . . . you'll never look at a flowerbed in the same way again. I loved it!
Phoebe Lock, author of THE JULY GIRLS
A darkly funny and compulsive tale of loyalty, love and doing the wrong thing for the right reasons, A GOOD PLACE TO HIDE A BODY kept me reading all night. I loved Penny and her family and laughed and gasped in equal measure as they juggled with the consequences of various very bad choices, desperate for all of them to get their happy ending
Praise for LAURA MARSHALL:
Tammy Cohen, author of THE WEDDING PARTY
A tense, twisty, one-sitting read
Karen Hamilton, author of THE PERFECT GIRLFRIEND
Such a clever and thrilling read
Lisa Cutts, author of MURDER AT THE CASTLE
Only the need to sleep stopped me reading it in one sitting. Such a page-turner with no let-up in pace!
Marion Todd, author of A BLIND EYE
A compelling plot interlaced with a growing unease I couldn't shake off - so clever!
The Sun
Superb
John Marrs, author of WHAT LIES BETWEEN US
A pacy, twisty page-turner
Holly Willoughby on MY HUSBAND'S KILLER
Gripping . . . the pages actually turned themselves
Daily Mail
A name to watch!
Catherine Cooper, Sunday Times bestselling author of THE CHALET
A gripping, multi-layered story. Clever and nuanced
Fiona Cummins, author of ALL OF US ARE BROKEN
Brilliant . . . I couldn't put it down. So cleverly written
Emma Curtis, author of THE BABYSITTER
Clever, pacy and compelling
PRAISE FOR KISS MARRY KILL:
Nikki May
Three women (of a certain age) come together in this funny, twisty, dark and clever page-turner. I inhaled it. I loved it. And I want a best friend like Angela. Laura Marshall is on fire.
Fiona Cummins
Murderously funny, KISS MARRY KILL sees Marshall at the top of her game. If this book was a dating acronym, it would surely be MRAB: MUST READ - ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT
Nikki Smith
If you enjoyed Bad Sisters you will absolutely love this. A brilliant blend of laugh out loud funny combined with a horrifying expose of coercive control. Brian is one of the most unpleasant characters I have ever encountered in a book!
CE Hulse
Wry, funny and deliciously socially awkward - tongue-in-cheek but also compelling and full of tension. I couldn't put it down
Eleni Kyriacou, author of A Beautiful Way to Die
Deliciously dark from start to finish, this sharp, poignant take on female friendship, marriage and murder is pitch perfect. Loved it - what an absolute treat.
Rachel Wolf
I was obsessed with all these women! I couldn't put KISS MARRY KILL down. Raced through it! Twisty, surprising, funny. This one had it all. Loved it
Caroline Green
A hugely enjoyable, funny, and sometimes heart-rending read. Another total cracker of a read from Laura Marshall
