Natalie Chandler, author of WHAT WE DID
«This is everything you expect from a Mo Hayder: a little bit weird, a little bit nasty, with characters you love from the off. Creepy as hell. And an ending that made my blood run cold»
Sam Holland, author of THE ECHO MAN
«A tour de force . . . A riveting blend of folklore and thriller»
Best Magazine

«PRAISE FOR BONEHEAD - »
«Hayder's untimely death in 2021 robbed us of an imagination unparalleled in both its darkness and its audacity. Her final novel is as haunting and distinctive as its predecessors.... A classic Hayder shocker»
Guardian
«[Bonehead] is a triumph . . . Spooky and unsettling, the book is a spectacular end to Hayder's career»
Times
«As shocking and sinister as anything Hayder has written. It is an unexpected, bittersweet treat to be back in the hands of one of our very best crime writers»
Observer
«A disturbing and compelling farewell»
Telegraph Online
«The writing is restrained but beautifully descriptive, the pace varied according to the tensions it is intended to create . . . the talent at work here is remarkable»
Spectator
«Bonehead is a triumph, with Mo Hayder's customary sleight of hand, attention to detail, and brilliantly authentic character creation. It perfectly wraps urban myths within the frailty of men's follies, and weaves a tale that unfolds piece by piece until you can bear it no more and rush through to the final, extraordinary pages. If this had to be Mo Hayder's legacy, then it's a fitting one. I inhaled this book.»
Helen Fields, author of THE INSTITUTION
«Deliciously dark and horrifying, perfectly balanced and plotted. Stayed with me long after I'd finished reading»
Catherine Cooper, author of THE CHALET
