‘Fans of C. L. Taylor are in for a treat. The Fear is her best yet. ’

Clare Mackintosh

‘Claustrophobic and compelling. ’

Karin Slaughter

‘A skewering portrait of obsessive love and psychological manipulation, this book gets under the skin from the outset and won’t let you go until you’ve gasped at THAT ending.

C. J. Cooke

‘A thoroughly enjoyable read, a highly original and timely tale that kept me utterly enthralled and entertained from beginning to end. ’

Liz Nugent

‘I loved The Fear! It’s my favourite of C. L. Taylor’s novels now. I couldn’t put it down. Tense, twisty, terrifying – with one of the best premises I’ve read in ages. ’

Julie Cohen

‘Many thrillers claim to be compelling: The Fear absolutely is. Breathtakingly bold, shockingly tense, you won’t be able to tear yourself away from this book. It’s dark, emotionally-charged and filled with characters who will make you question everything you think you know about them. The Fear will delight C. L. Taylor’s fans and win her an army of new ones. What a book!’

Miranda Dickinson

‘What an absolutely cracking read! Pacy, well-written,

and anxiety inducing. ’

Lisa Hall

‘The Fear is a compulsive read, that forces the reader to consider just how far they would go to protect themselves and those around them. I could not put this book down!’
