Publisher Review

‘A taut, compulsively readable, elegantly plotted thriller’ – Guardian

“As Good As Dead is a phenomenal YA mystery that deserves to be one of the books of the year and provides a stellar finale to a knockout series.”
Nerd Daily

‘A fiendishly-plotted mystery that kept me guessing until the very end.’ – Laura Purcell, bestselling author of The Silent Companions

‘There is a lot to really enjoy in this story and there is great energy to the writing, as well as some fine characterization’ – Peter James, award-winning and no.1 bestselling crime thriller author of Detective Superintendent Roy Grace series

‘Twisty, compulsive and so, so clever’ – Savannah Brown, author of The Truth About Keeping Secrets

‘That ending! Pure genius’ – Yasmin Rahman, author of All the Things We Never Said

‘This book was a delight from start to finish. I laughed. I cried. And I very much enjoyed attempting to solve the case with Pip (who I now want to be my best friend). I didn’t guess the twist, and I don’t think many people will. Holly Jackson has absolutely killed it with her debut!’ – Aisha Busby, author of A Pocketful of Stars and contributor to the award-winning A Change is Gonna Come

‘Prepare to be murdered by this book. Dark, dangerous and intricately plotted – my heart literally pounded. I haven’t been this addicted to anything since Serial. Holly Jackson is the next big thing, I promise’ – Laura Stevens, author of The Exact Opposite of Okay

‘Twisty and compelling’ – Fiona Noble, Bookseller
