STUART TURTON is a freelance journalist who lives in West London with his wife. Stuart is not to be trusted--in the nicest possible way. The 71/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle is his first novel.
"A kaleidoscopic mystery that brilliantly bends the limits of the
genre and the mind of the reader. The 71/2 Deaths of Evelyn
Hardcastle is urgent, inventive, creepy and, above all, a blast to
read!" -- Matthew Sullivan, author of Midnight at the Bright Ideas
Bookstore
"Absolute envy-making bloody murderous brilliance." -- Natasha
Pulley, author of The Watchmaker of Filigree Street
"Agatha Christie meets Downton Abbey with a splash of red wine and
Twin Peaks. Dark and twisty, lush and riddled with gorgeous prose,
part of me will always be trapped in Blackheath." -- Delilah S.
Dawson, New York Times bestselling author
"Atmospheric and unique, this is a mystery that adds "Who am I?" to
the question of whodunit, with existentially suspenseful results."
-- Foreword Reviews
"Bonkers but brilliant. It's an Agatha Christie manor-house
mystery- with a Black Mirror twist. Kept me engrossed and guessing
throughout, and I still didn't figure it out." -- Kirsty Logan,
author of The Gracekeepers
"Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant! It's a work of sheer genius. An
amazing, unique book that blew my mind." -- Sarah J. Harris, author
of The Color of Bee Larkham's Murder
"Dazzling. A revolving door of suspects (and narrators); a
sumptuous country-house setting; a pure-silk M�bius strip of a
story. This bracingly original, fiendishly clever murder
mystery--Agatha Christie meets Groundhog Day--is quite unlike
anything I've ever read, and altogether triumphant. I wish I'd
written it." -- A. J. Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of
The Woman in the Window
"Gloriously inventive, playful and clever, this is a must for
mystery fans. I wish I'd written it myself." -- Robin Stevens,
author of the Wells and Wong mystery series
"I hereby declare Stuart Turton the Mad Hatter of Crime. The 71/2
Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle is unique, energizing, and clever. So
original, a brilliant read." -- Ali Land, Sunday Times bestselling
author Good Me Bad Me
"I'm green with envy; I wish I'd written this book." -- Jenny
Blackhurst, author of How I Lost You
"If Agatha Christie and Terry Pratchett had ever had LSD-fueled
sex, then The 71/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle would be their acid
trip book baby. Darkly comic, mind-blowingly twisty, and with a
cast of fantastically odd characters, this is a locked room mystery
like no other." -- Sarah Pinborough, New York Times bestselling
author
"My favorite mystery so far this year, it's Agatha Christie,
Groundhog Day, and Black Mirror mashed up into the kind of tale you
just can't put down." -- Canadian Living
"Pop your favorite Agatha Christie whodunnit into a blender with a
scoop of Downton Abbey, a dash of Quantum Leap, and a liberal
sprinkling of Groundhog's Day and you'll get this unique murder
mystery. The twisting, cleverly-written debut..." -- Harper's
Bazaar, 10 New Books to Add to Your Reading List in 2018
"Stuart Turton's debut novel is dazzling in its complexity,
astonishing in its fiendishness, and shocking in its sheer
audacity. Every page, every character, and every deliciously dark
secret is an absolute treat. Turton is going places." -- Anna
Stephens, author of The Godblind Trilogy
"This book blew my mind! Utterly original and unique." -- Sophie
Hannah, international bestselling author
"This novel is so ingenious and original that it's difficult to
believe it's Turton's debut. The writing is completely
immersive...there are certainly echoes of Agatha Christie here, but
it's Christie ramped up several notches, thanks to the malevolent
twist on the Groundhog Day theme. Readers may be scratching their
heads in delicious befuddlement as they work their way through this
novel, but one thing will be absolutely clear: Stuart Turton is an
author to remember." -- Booklist
"Turton's debut is a brainy, action-filled sendup of the classic
mystery." -- Kirkus Reviews
