Reviews

A must for all true-crime documentary fans - clever, original and intricate with a brilliant twist and highly believable yet flawed characters. Unputdownable.
*Catherine Cooper, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Chalet*

If you enjoy true crime and crime fiction, then you will absolutely HAVE to binge-read this! Still reeling from the twists... and that final page! Can't wait to discuss this with people.
*Alice Hunter, author of The Serial Killer’s Wife*

What a ride. Clever, gripping & terrifyingly plausible, it takes true-crime obsession to a horrifying conclusion. Loved it.
*Jennie Godfrey, author of The List of Suspicious Things*

I've just finished reading Kill Show and I'm so bloody excited about it. The plotting! The twists! Prepare to be obsessed. It's about a missing girl, and a reality TC show, and a police investigation. And you just won't be able to put it down.
*Laura Pearson*

Easily one of my top reads of the year. Intelligent, poignant, and propulsive. I devoured it! Where do we draw the line between entertainment and integrity? Or are we already past it?
*Liv Matthews, author of The Twins*

A fun, clever twist on our obsession with true crime. I loved it.
*The Observer (The New Review)*

I raced through Kill Show. Gripping, fast-paced and oh so twisty.
*Louise Jensen, bestselling author of The Gift*

Riveting, original, and chillingly plausible, Kill Show is both an urgent reckoning with the ethics of true crime and a tense, twisty mystery in its own right. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough.
*Flynn Berry, Edgar Award-Winning Author of Northern Spy*

A truly modern morality play, in a unique and compelling style, that reflects on the uncomfortable connections between greed, ambition, and violence. Kill Show takes a sleepy, suburban town and turns it into a true-crime battlefield as events careen out of control. Smart, twisty, satisfying.
*Andrew Gross, New York Times bestselling author*

Frequent foreshadowing fosters tension and drive, while keenly rendered characters with distinct voices and unique perspectives add dimension and verisimilitude. . . . .Sweren-Becker delivers a riveting work of fiction that doubles as scathing social commentary about America's true-crime obsession.
*Kirkus Reviews*

If there is one subject that causes moral division, it's true crime . . . [this] is front and centre in this provocative and gripping novel
*Crime Monthly*

This is a different approach to a crime novel . . .[an] explosive success
*Peterborough Telegraph*

Like the much-lauded Daisy Jones & The Six, the story here unfolds in interview form . . . provocative and gripping
