Praise for Cruel Acts:

‘You’ll be checking the locks and looking over your shoulder after reading this one:  Cruel Acts is clever, classy crime fiction with a conscience. I couldn’t put it down.’ Erin Kelly (bestselling author of He Said/She Said)

‘I thought it was magnificent. I've loved all Jane's books but this is a new departure, definitely her best book. It's next level stuff. I could NOT stop reading it, I cared deeply for all the girls. I loved the sexual tension between Maeve and Derwent and I really wasn't expecting the ending.Simply, this is superior crime writing. Utter brilliance.’ Marian Keyes (bestselling author of The Break).
