      ‘If you loved Graeme Cameron’s Normal, you’d better hold on tight, because his exceptional follow-up hits it out of the park. Shot through with dry humour and darkness, and starring a female detective who will blow your mind, Dead Girls is an utterly compulsive read’

       Fiona Cummins

      ‘Deeply creepy and very clever story’

       Heat

      ‘An utterly compelling crime novel with an unforgettable heroine. I hope this is only the start of Ali’s story’

       Elly Griffiths

      ‘Hypnotic and chilling – you won’t forget this in a hurry’

       Lee Child

      ‘Blackly humorous …. Normal marks Cameron out as one to watch’

       Daily Express

      ‘Original and gripping’

       Clare Mackintosh

      ‘I didn’t like Normal. I loved it’

       Michael Robotham
