The 71/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle

"Dazzling. A revolving door of suspects (and narrators); a sumptuous country-house setting; a pure-silk M�bius strip of a story. This bracingly original, fiendishly clever murder mystery - Agatha Christie meets Groundhog Day - is quite unlike anything I've ever read, and altogether triumphant. I wish I'd written it." - "Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant! It's a work of sheer genius. An amazing, unique book that blew my mind. " - "Agatha Christie meets Downton Abbey with a splash of red wine and Twin Peaks. Dark and twisty, lush and riddled with gorgeous prose, part of me will always be trapped in Blackheath." - Delilah S. Dawson, New York Times bestselling author "Pop your favorite Agatha Christie whodunnit into a blender with a scoop of Downton Abbey, a dash of Quantum Leap, and a liberal sprinkling of Groundhog's Day and you'll get this unique murder mystery. The twisting, cleverly-written debut..." - Harper's Bazaar, 10 New Books to Add to Your Reading List in 2018 "This book had me mesmerized from the very first page to the last. A totally unique premise and a beautifully plotted tale told with breathtaking skill. One of the best books I've read in a long time. Every page either sparkles or fizzes with beauty or danger. This is a real mind-melter of a novel from a writer who has complete mastery over his work. If more people could write like this, who'd need cinema?" - Imran Mahmood, author of You Don't Know Me "Audaciously inventive, gripping, and original." - Louise O'Neill, author of Only Ever Yours and Asking For It "Stuart Turton's debut novel is dazzling in its complexity, astonishing in its fiendishness, and shocking in its sheer audacity. Every page, every character, and every deliciously dark secret is an absolute treat. Turton is going places." - Anna Stephens, author of The Godblind Trilogy "Gloriously inventive, playful and clever, this is a must for mystery fans. I wish I'd written it myself..." - Robin Stevens, author of the Wells and Wong mystery series "If Agatha Christie and Terry Pratchett had ever had LSD-fuelled sex, then The 71/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle would be their acid trip book baby. Darkly comic, mind-blowingly twisty, and with a cast of fantastically odd characters, this is a locked room mystery like no other." - New York Times bestselling author Sarah Pinborough "I hereby declare Stuart Turton the Mad Hatter of Crime. The 71/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle is unique, energizing, and clever. So original, a brilliant read." - Ali Land, Sunday Times bestselling author Good Me Bad Me "This book blew my mind! Utterly original and unique." - International bestseller Sophie Hannah "Absolute envy-making bloody murderous brilliance" - Natasha Pulley, author of The Watchmaker of Filigree Street "I'm green with envy; I wish I'd written this book" - Jenny Blackhurst, author of How I Lost You "Audaciously inventive, gripping, and original " - Louise O'Neill, author of Only Ever Yours and Asking For It
