Critics Review

Connie is a thriller which brilliantly combines emotional depth of character with a savage motive for murder. The result is unnerving but hugely satisfying. Duckworth's best novel yet
LV Matthews
A chilling, compulsive dive into the mind of a killer - and the woman determined to uncover the truth. Connie is a haunting, intricately drawn portrait of trauma and female rage. I devoured it. Duckworth has never been better
Emily Freud
Absolutely loved this book - a 'whydunnit' rather than a 'whodunnit' about a female serial killer. Entirely gripping and original - Charlotte Duckworth at her best
Catherine Cooper
Suitably unsettling and heartbreaking, I couldn't put Connie down. I read it in 2 days! Gripping and multi-layered
Kristina Thornton
This is Charlotte Duckworth at her peak: an expertly crafted, searingly insightful character study that unravels its secrets as elegantly as a fine silk scarf. With an assured hand, Duckworth takes a scalpel to society, deftly peeling back the layers to reveal what drives people to do despicable things, and in doing so finds humanity in the darkest of places. Connie Cross is at once brittle and fragile, vulnerable and diabolical; an utterly captivating anti heroine
Lizzy Barber
Connie is a dark, haunting and propulsive page turner that grabbed me by the throat and squeezed. I couldn't get enough of this book. It's properly addictive!
Lisa Timoney
Connie is a brilliant portrayal of a fictional female serial killer, examining what drove her to carry out her terrible crimes. Insightful, thoughtful and emotionally heartbreaking, this is my favourite of Charlotte's books so far and I was glued to every page
Nikki Smith
Absolutely enthralling. Both uncompromising in its message and compassionate, Connie grabbed me from page one. Highly recommend
Emma Curtis
Utterly chilling and moving exploration of a female serial killer and her crimes. I found Connie so absorbing - this book has so much depth to it - a story packed with regret and sadness, and brimming with feminine rage. Do not miss it!
Heather Critchlow
Beautiful, clean writing, a fascinating picture of a female serial killer painted stroke by masterful stroke. Perfectly paced with a pitch perfect or should I say perfectly imperfect resolution . . . brava Charlotte Duckworth
