How many times would you let your child get away with murder? The new break-out thriller from Sam Lloyd, author of Richard & Judy Book Club pick The Memory Wood.


When you look down at your newborn baby, you realise they were right, those smug parents you’ve always rolled your eyes at: you’d do literally anything for your child. To make them happy, keep them safe.

So when Joseph Carver wakes one night to find his teenage son Max scrubbing the kitchen, hands wet with blood and panic flooding his voice as he promises it was an accident, he didn’t mean to do it, Joseph does the only thing he can. He helps Max bury the body.

Joseph thinks that’s the end of the nightmare. Until he finds Max with stricken eyes and bloody hands once again . . .

You’d do anything for your child – even cover up a murder.

But would you do it twice?

Recensioni della critica

The Bodies by Sam Lloyd has possibly the best hook of any thriller/psychological suspense in the last few years...it’s a blood-chilling, mind-bending, stress-inducing nightmare...I loved it, raced through it, can’t praise it highly enough.’
Brilliantly written and genuinely terrifying.
A twisty, relatable and relentlessly gripping thriller that plays on every parent’s darkest fear. The tension never lets up for a moment.
A suburban Breaking Bad. Expertly plotted. The definition of unputdownable. A fantastic thriller.
A nightmare scenario - and just when you think the nightmare is over, it gets worse. I was so tense I could barely breathe!
