Reviews

"One of the most compelling psychological thrillers I've read in a long time, A Map of the Dark grabs you from the very first page and does not loosen its grip. I read this book in a day---I simply could not put it down---but I will be thinking about it for much longer."--Alison Gaylin, USA Today bestselling author of What Remains of Me

"[An] existential thriller... Last Night is a group character study that offers realistic suspense. Ms. Ellis is an able guide inside the psyches of her subjects."--Tom Nolan, Wall Street Journal

"A taut, tense, exciting read with a sharp and very human protagonist."--Reed Farrel Coleman, New York Times bestselling author of What You Break

"Karen Ellis entwines complex storylines with breakneck precision. A must-read for fans of taut, unpredictable psychological suspense."--Wendy Corsi Staub, bestselling author of Blue Moon

"Without resorting to stereotypes, Ellis deftly shows just how different the stakes are for kids who supposedly live in the same world but who face very different obstacles and possibilities. This thoughtful entry in the Searchers series will satisfy fans of the previous work as well as those who enjoy a well-crafted look at New York's underbelly."--Booklist
