Praise for Stop At Nothing

Perfectly paced, absolutely believable - and therefore utterly terrifying.

Emma Flint, author of LITTLE DEATHS

I read this straight through, only stopping to sleep. I absolutely loved it.

Jane Fallon, author of FAKING FRIENDS

Fear and suspicion in the heart of leafy London makes this an intriguing read.

Sinead Crowley, author of ONE BAD TURN

Sandwiched between teenage daughters and elderly parents, menopause and separation, Tessa seeks justice for her daughter to the last . . . A realistic protagonist and a great read.

Penny Hancock, author of A TRICK OF THE MIND

Stop at Nothing is a chilling and completely gripping tale of obsession, shame and mother love. Tammy Cohen has a gift for creating characters who feel real and plots that ring true. She knows exactly how to pace a novel so the tension increases, page by page, until it's close to unbearable. I loved it.

Jane Casey, author of CRUEL ACTS

Tense, exciting and intelligent.

Gillian McAllister, author of EVERYTHING BUT THE TRUTH

I’ve always loved Tammy Cohen's novels and Stop At Nothing is another compulsive and thoroughly enjoyable read!

Lesley Kara, author of THE RUMOUR

Chillingly believable and absolutely addictive. I read it in three days flat. Tammy Cohen is absolutely at the top of her game. Incredible.

Lisa Jewell, author of THEN SHE WAS GONE

Tense plotting, razor-sharp writing, and some on-the-nose relatable characterization. Highly recommended.

Louise Candlish, author of OUR HOUSE

Astonishingly brilliant. An intensely riveting read, at once entertaining and jaw-dropping, further proof if it were needed that Tammy Cohen is going from strength to strength.

Liz Nugent, author of LYING IN WAIT

Tammy Cohen observes human nature with the sharpest eye and her prose is peppered with wit and insight. Stop At Nothing grips and twists from the start.

Amanda Jennings

Part thriller, part domestic drama, this is gripping and thoughtful stuff.

Sunday Mirror

This is a real cat-and-mouse drama, which keeps you guessing who is guilty and who is innocent until the very end.
