The Others

Description

FOUR WOMEN. ONE FATAL PROMISE. Dina, Ronit, Naama and Sheila: the Others. As students, they chose to be different - bound by a pact never to have children. Even as their friendship fell apart, Sheila kept her promise. Now, years later, a serial killer is on the loose in Tel Aviv. Each victim is found with a baby doll glued to their hands and 'mother' carved into their forehead. Sheila suspects that she alone knows the killer's motive. The vow the Others made lands her at the heart of the murder investigation - but is she the next victim, or the primary suspect? 'Wickedly entertaining... The Others is unlike anything else you'll read this year...Don't miss it' - Gabriel Bergmoser, author of THE HUNTED

I loved it' - Luke Jennings, author of the 'Killing Eve' series 'Twisted, dark and fizzing with fury, it's a lot of fun' - Observer, Thriller of the Month 'The narrative twists with ironic relish' - Sunday Times Crime Club 'The mystery is absorbing, but so is the passionate debate over how the world views women who decide not to have children - and how they view themselves' - New York Times
