Critic reviews

Utterly suspenseful. A terrific, twisted read.
Daisy in Chains is a delicious puzzle of a book - kept me guessing right up to the very end, then pulled a surprise I never saw coming. This summer's must-read crime thriller.
A fresh take on did-he-didn’t-he, this spine-chilling thriller has a great twist
A gripping read that twists and turns until the final killer twist. (Fanny Blake)
DAISY IN CHAINS is a book you'll want to read in one sitting.
Displaying an ingenuity and penchant for teasing and foxing the reader reminiscent of Agatha Christie, this is a beguilingly bizarre mixture of suspense tale and whodunnit.

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

No, I found the ending disappointing, and, in the Audible version, I was constantly confused about who was talking and when dialogue ended and began.

Would you ever listen to anything by Sharon Bolton again?

Possibly with a different narrator

Would you be willing to try another one of Antonia Beamish’s performances?

No, her voice was beyond irritating. She didn't change voices between characters and different sections of dialogue often blended into one, so you didn't know who was talking, whether it was dialogue or part of the story, and subsequently, what was going on in the story.

Do you think Daisy in Chains needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

No, the ending was very closed.

Confusing narration, story was OK

Enthralling

I didnt see the twist coming at all, til the very end, a couple of them. it was a well written book, easy listening, but didnt get too enthralled until way into it, but enjoyed it nonetheless. worth a read/listen.

really enjoyed

I did manage to twig the main twist about 40 mins before the end but not the actual outcome so very rewarding listen!

First story in ages to keep me guessing

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The subject matter didn’t really appeal to me, although I really like this author. Her stories are always fascinating, and she must do an awful lot of research because the subjects and characters always seem to be layered and real. This story is no exception, and although I did guess part of the solution, I didn’t get it all. The narrator is excellent as always.

Another very clever story
