Praise for The Search Party

Unpredictable, wildly original and with an ending that made me gasp, this is thriller writing at its very best

Nuala Ellwood

Simon Lelic is on my radar from this point forward. The Search Party is taut, beautifully written, and scary as hell, with more twists than a mountain road

Christina Dalcher

I loved this book, from one of my favourite authors. You'll definitely want to read this absorbing, creepy, and totally unputdownable novel

Luca Veste

I raced through The Search Party, unable to put it down. It's tense, twisty and intricately plotted, with characters that stay with you long after you've read the last page

Laura Marshall

A brilliantly original story with an immediately intriguing cast of characters and a compelling mystery that kept me hooked throughout. With his insightful characterisation combined with a gripping plot, Lelic has just recruited a brand new fan

Philippa East

A masterful, original ... A thriller and a half
