The debut everyone is talking about... A brilliant first novel, that forcibly reminds one of Donna Tartt's A Secret History
Elle
Constantly terrifying, accomplished fiction
Le Monde des Livres
Christophe Dufossé fuses the suspense of Stephen King with the irony and ambition of Houellebecq. A truly successful debut
Les Inrockuptibles
There is a vague air of menace throughout...Dufosse [is] a shrewd observer of eccentric behaviour
Paul Bailey, Guardian
The story hurtles towards a creepy climax with jet-black humour and style
Kate Saunders, The Times
Dufosse's debut has garnered high praise in his native France and it is easy to see why. The narrative is fast-paced and compelling, the writing assured and witty
Michael Arditti, Daily Mail
Dufosse is roughly what you'd get if you crossed Houellebecq with Alan Warner. His writing is cool, sexy and sinister
Esquire
Dufosse's first novel is a well-paced, gripping thriller...not for the faint-hearted
Big Issue
A writer of wit and style
Scotland on Sunday
A powerful debut
