'Gripping . . . Just brilliant' Clare Mackintosh

'Emotionally compelling' Chris Brookmyre

THERE'S A FINE LINE BETWEEN GOOD AND BAD . . .

'Big George' McLaughlin is a bad person. He's snatched a little girl from her family, and he's not planning on giving her back.

But George is also inherently good. He loves this little girl and has kidnapped her with pure intentions. She's his daughter and he wouldn't do a thing to hurt her.

So when being together feels so right, why is it so terribly wrong?

Is there such a thing as good bad love?

From the Richard & Judy Book Club and international bestselling author of The Guilty One comes a suspenseful, gritty and emotionally charged journey of an estranged father and daughter, exploring the strength of family ties and our huge capacity for forgiveness.

Industry Reviews

[a] moving, insightful debut . . . It's easy to see why this caused such a stir at Frankfurt last year. If it isn't this year's Before I Go To Sleep, I'll eat my laptop - Guardian on The Guilty One

Lisa Ballantyne has written a first novel that is both moving and suspenseful; richly detailed, yet with the eerie simplicity of a parable - Joyce Carol Oates on The Guilty One

One of the most readable, emotionally intense novels of the year, and a debut one at that. Lisa Ballantyne pulls off the key writer's trick of getting us to care about the characters; by the end of the first chapter, you will be comprehensively on the hook - Richard Madeley, Richard and Judy s Book Club, Autumn 2012 Pick on The Guilty One

Sophisticated, suspenseful, unsettling, and highly recommended: a terrific debut from an author to watch - Lee Child on The Guilty One

Thought provoking, brave and challenging, this book is an unsettling and compulsive read - Rosamund Lupton, bestselling author of Sister and Afterwards, on The Guilty One

This is a subject that grips the attention like a vice - Daily Mail on The Guilty One
