Beautifully written, intriguing and atmospheric, The Blue Hour cuts to the heart of the artist’s visceral process, and the chillingly fine line between love and hate. It is a real page-turner * BELINDA BAUER * What an addictive, exhilarating book, so beautifully composed and brilliantly conceived. And what a heartstopping, haunting ending. Paula is a true master of her art. * DONAL RYAN * Paula Hawkins has more in common with Patricia Highsmith than just her initials. She combines dark, unsettling plots with psychologically damaged characters, to create novels that are as compulsive as they are complex. The Blue Hour is her finest work yet, a literary thriller set in the abstract world of art. * JOHN BOYNE * The Blue Hour swept me along on a tide as unforgiving and irresistible as the one around the island of Eris.’ * VAL MCDERMID * The best Paula Hawkins yet - by a tense and haunting mile. * LEE CHILD *
