Trust us: this book is unlike anything else. (Stylist)
2015's oh-so-chilling thriller breakout. (Grazia)
Unpredictable and moving. (Marie Claire)
Like Emma Donoghue did in ROOM, Hamer starts off with a premise we think we know - an abducted child - and takes the reader somewhere completely unexpected. This is a beautifully written and highly original story that is gripping, thought-provoking and emotionally tender. (Mumsnet 2015 Must Reads)
Thrillers about abducted children are hardly a fresh idea, but Kate Hamer's debut novel may be the most original take on the subject since Ian McEwan's The Child In Time...There is a surreal, fairytale-like quality to this unique and beguiling book. (Sunday Express)
Gripping. (Sunday Express Magazine)
This accomplished and enthralling debut novel follows what happens after the abduction of an eight-year-old girl, Carmel. Told from both her and her mother's points of view, this had me guessing until the very last page. (Fanny Blake, Woman & Home)
The Girl in the Red Coat keeps the reader hooked - and awake into the small hours. (Isabel Berwick, Financial Times)
Told in two very different voice, this debut is moving, tender and tense, exploring love and loss from the view of adult Beth and her otherworldly child in a way that's devastatingly convincing. (Psychologies, Book of the Month)
