I defy you to put this addictive book down until you reach the final heart-breaking page
Daily Express
What begins as a story about the mother of a missing girl starting a new relationship as she comes terms with her grief morphs into a gripping, disturbing and utterly fascinating tale about what really happened to young Ellie Mack. I've been a Lisa Jewell fan for a long time and in this book, as in all her others, she deftly weaves a compelling plot with an emotional depth that leaves you gasping. In Then She Was Gone she has created a book that is dark and claustrophobic but also heartfelt and moving. Then She Was Gone packs a huge emotional punch that will leave you winded. I loved it.
CL Taylor, author of The Escape, The Lie and The Missing A dark, compulsive psychological thriller, yet one which is also uplifting and tender. I absolutely loved Then She Was Gone.
Rachel Rhys, author of Dangerous Crossing 9733 A tense clever page-tuner that everyone will be talking about.
Adele Parks She has departed from her usual chick lit and gone full tilt into a psycho thriller, but she's lost none of her brilliance. Indeed, I think this is my favourite of hers so far... Deeply emotional and incredibly clever. Bravo
Mail Online
Unnerving, and with a juicy reveal, this is rightly a modern classic
Grazia
Jewell builds a gripping novel around a maze of dark secrets, a tautly wound psychological thriller in which the suspense builds slowly. Her storytelling is immaculate, hopping between past and present, and in and out of characters. It's a tough read at times, but Jewell always keeps everything moving. The intrigue never flags as she pushed towards a redemptive resolution. As astute and emotionally charged read, riddled with creepiness. Fully recommended

After last year's fantastic I Found You, Lisa Jewell is on a roll with another fast paced and cleverly plotted psychological thriller ... If this sounds quite run of the mill, it's not. Lisa Jewell writes with such a keen eye for detail, so much heart and yet deviousness that I can't wait to read what she comes up with next

Jewell has always been a favourite writer. Seeing her fully embrace her dark side is a massive treat. A dark, sad and deeply disturbing exploration of the aftermath of the loss of a beloved child, Then She Was Gone deserves to be a huge hit.
