Seven Days

Robert Rutherford hasn't just dipped his toes into the thriller genre; he's dived in headfirst. And the result is spectacular - a genuine edge-of-your-seat, thrill-a-minute adrenaline rush. Highly recommended. * M.W. Craven, author of The Botanist * Loved SEVEN DAYS. With a father on death row Alice is tight on time. This was as pacy as it gets, racing through the North East, Paris and New York. Tightly plotted, sharp on character, and huge in scale. * Rachel Blok, author of The Fall * I absolutely rattled through this impressive, polished thriller from Robert Rutherford. One thing I can promise you: it won't take you seven days to read it! Seven hours, more like! * Trevor Wood, author of Dead End Street * A breathless race across continents, an emotional battle, a shadowy killer: this thriller has it all. If you like your mysteries intriguing and twisting, this one's for you. * Sam Holland, author of The Echo Man * Meticulously crafted and dripping with menace. * Victoria Selman, Sunday Times bestselling author of Truly Darkly Deeply * Simultaneously a high-octane race across continents to save a condemned man, and a thriller that asks big questions about guilt, family and forgiveness, it is dark, compelling and full of heart * Heather Critchlow, author of Unsolved * A dynamic, polished, race across continents and against time with beautifully drawn, fraught relationships bursting from the pages. Cinematic and highly recommended! * James Delargy, author of 55 * An absolute rip-roaring, globetrotting, adrenaline-fuelled thriller! The jeopardy seeps from the page, and the tension keeps ratcheting up until it's almost unbearable! Surely set to be a bestseller in 2024! * Chris Frost, author of The Killer’s Christmas List * A tense, snappy, charged thriller, with complex family relationships, a great twist halfway, and brilliant locations * Louise Beech, author of End of Story * Seven Days is a hard-hitting, global race against time masterpiece which re-defines the term high concept thriller. Rutherford's breakneck pace and plot-chicanes, as the clock literally ticks down to save an innocent yet dreadful father from execution, will have you glued to your chair as you struggle to turn the pages fast enough * Graham Bartlett, author of Force of Hate * A race-against-time thriller that blends slick plotting with the flair of hard-boiled crime.
