Description

Wish you weren’t here . . .

When Jill wakes up in a hospital bed with her leg in a cast, the last six weeks of her life are a complete blank. All she has been told is that she was involved in a fatal accident while on a school trip in Italy and had to be jetted home to receive intensive care. Care that involves a lawyer. And a press team. Because maybe the accident . . . wasn’t just an accident.

With no memory of what happened or what she did, can Jill prove her innocence? And can she really be sure that she isn’t the one to blame?

Publisher Review

The compelling and pacy drama of her awakening is packed with slow reveals, as more horrors lay in wait * The Big Issue * I loved it. I couldn't put it down. I can definitely recommend this book! * Quillable.ca * It is a perfect beach read (...) the journey is intriguing and bound to keep you wanting more * minervamag.com * With Malice here should be next on your TBR (...) It's very hard to stop reading (...) NOW THAT'S A READABLE BOOK (...) Its place on my favorites shelf is assured! * The YA Kitten Book Blog * I very much enjoyed With Malice and would absolutely recommend it for readers looking for an imminently readable young adult mystery. Fast-paced, focused, and strongly written- with careful consideration to give just enough background on brain-injury and patient rehabilitation- Cook has done a terrific job * fabbookreviews.com * Throughout WITH MALICE, Eileen Cook does an impeccable job of keeping readers hooked, the slow release of new information ensured that you did not want to put the book down. In a very Gone Girl-esque narrative Cook has created a lead character that is generally very unlikeable. This is an entertaining read and is it very difficult to put down * Books For Keeps * With Malice is one of the most thrilling books I've read all year. I just couldn't take my eyes off the pages (...)I absolutely loved being taken on this journey (...) It is an enjoyable and captivating read, and the use of an unreliable narrator was clever and kept me on the edge of my seat * Written Word Worlds * If you are wanting a mystery/thriller a bit different to other books in the genre, then With Malice is most likely going to satisfy you * Delicate Eternity * a thoroughly enjoyable read that makes the reader want to keep turning pages. A highly recommended read. * The School librarian * With Malice is an excellently crafted young adult psychological thriller. The characterisation is sharp and Jill comes over as a likeable narrator, which gives the gradually unfolding story an even greater chill factor. The ending is clever and doesn't in any way short-change the reader, which is a hard trick to pull off. * Crime Review * I thoroughly enjoyed this novel as it captivated me from the moment I lifted the first page. It will entrance you immediately... It is an extremely gripping tale which discusses many important issues regarding the difference between friendships and relationships -- Grace, aged 14
