I burned through Krysten Ritter's hugely accomplished debut. Bonfire is dark, disturbing, and compulsively readable.
Ruth Ware, bestselling author of IN A DARK, DARK WOOD and THE WOMAN IN CABIN 10
Bonfire is a stone-cold stunner—the writing is dazzling, the suspense is creeping, and the story of a woman returning home to face her past is brimming with emotion and truth. An extraordinary debut from a major talent.
Blake Crouch, New York Times bestselling author of DARK MATTER
The plot is packed with suspense and moves at a cracking pace. This portrait of small- town life by Breaking Bad and Jessica Jones actress Ritter is spot on. Abby makes a terrific, kickass heroine who you’ll root for all the way
Daily Mail
Dark but compulsively readable
Image Magazine
In Abby Williams Ritter has created an appealingly feisty yet vulnerable heroin...An excellent debut
The Times
Abby’s voice captivates from the beginning and sustains throughout…Ritter ramps up the unreliability factor and keeps readers guessing with hairpin twists that shift the blame
The Irish Times
A rather splendid legal and psychological thriller debut from an unexpected source… this a debut of note
Maxim Jabukowski, Crime Time
An increasingly dark debut from the star of Jessica Jones
Glamour
A compulsive novel
Grazia
This is a dark and gripping book that demands to be read in one sitting
Culture Fly
A first-rate mystery resplendent with shadowy scenery, a tight plot and a lead character that is both fragile and strong
Washington Post
A phenomenal, haunting debut
Gillian Flynn, bestselling author of GONE GIRL
A compelling psychological thriller
Harper's Bazaar
Impressive, suspenseful.
