Praise for FOLLOW ME by Angela Clarke (#u5c20aa98-3995-5be9-9287-637e3e73bd95)
‘Follow Me doesn’t just throw in token references to the internet – its gripping plot hinges on modern technology at every breathless turn. Smart, snappy and addictive: Angela Clarke is #killingit’
Holly Williams, The Independent on Sunday.
‘Clarke turns social media into a terrifyingly dark place. You won’t look at your accounts the same way again. I was hooked and couldn’t stop turning the pages. With a memorable and unique protagonist, Clarke explores the phenomenon of (social media) celebrity while tapping into your fears.’
Rebecca Bradley, author of Shallow Waters
‘Smart, fast paced, fresh and frightening. Follow Me is a gripping debut.’
Rowan Coleman, author of The Memory Book
‘In Follow Me, Clarke creates a completely compelling world, and a complex heroine. Freddie is refreshing and fascinating – a credible addition to the crime canon and a great alternative for anyone who has grown frustrated with the male dominated world of the whodunnit. Follow Me is literally gripping – the tension levels were forcing me to clutch the book so hard that my hands hurt!’
Daisy Buchanan, Grazia
‘Follow Me is a well written, taut, absolutely fascinating and scarily good crime novel that is too true to life…It will certainly make you look at social media and Twitter in particular with the utmost scepticism and horror. Outstanding! Clearly the start of a wonderful series, superbly written. I definitely want more.’
Ayo Onatade, Shots magazine
‘Original, inventive & gripping’
Danny Smith, West Herts Drivetime
‘We’ve been waiting for a novel that shows just how creepy and scary social media actually is and this is it. Angela Clarke knows exactly which buttons to press. #creepedmeout’
Tania Carver, author of the Brennan and Esposito series
‘A fascinating murder mystery and a dark, ironic commentary on modern social media. Very about today.’
Paul Finch, author ofStalkers
‘Pacey, gripping, and so up-to-the-minute you better read it quick!’
Claire McGowan, author of The Fall, The Lost and The Dead Ground
‘Angela Clarke brings dazzling wit and a sharp sense of contemporary life to a fast-paced serial killer novel with serious style.’
Jane Casey, author of the Maeve Kerrigan series
‘Fast-paced, tense and playfully witty…A chillingly satirical take on a classic mystery formula. #ReadIt’
Graeme Cameron, author of Normal
For the authentically badass Amy Jones
