OBSERVER THRILLER OF THE MONTH
´A page-turning, adrenaline-soaked read . . . an eloquent and meditative insight into motherhood and what it means, its many small trials and wonders.´ Alison Flood, Observer
´I devoured it in one breathless sitting. Outstanding.´ Clare Mackintosh, author of I Let You Go and I See You
´It tore at every maternal fibre in my body. I couldn´t put it down.´ Fiona Barton, author of The Widow
Lincoln is a good boy. At the age of four, he is curious, clever and well behaved. He does as his mum says and knows what the rules are.
´The rules are different today. The rules are that we hide and do not let the man with the gun find us.´
When an ordinary day at the zoo turns into a nightmare, Joan finds herself trapped with her beloved son. She must summon all her strength, find unexpected courage and protect Lincoln at all costs - even if it means crossing the line between right and wrong; between humanity and animal instinct.
It´s a line none of us would ever normally dream of crossing.
But sometimes the rules are different.
´ Fierce Kingdom is a bold exploration of the ferocity of a mother´s love - riveting and beautiful, and all too real. You´ll find yourself asking, what would I do? It´s brilliant.´ Shari Lapena, author of The Couple Next Door
´ Unbearably tense and yet beautifully written, Fierce Kingdom demands to be read in one sitting. After finishing, I pulled my loved ones a little closer.´ Paula Daly, author of The Mistake I Made
´I was absolutely captivated by this book. So, so tense, but wonderfully written. The perfect book.´ Gillian McAllister, author of Everything But The Truth
"I devoured it in one breathless sitting. Outstanding." Clare Mackintosh, author of I LET YOU GO and I SEE YOU
