‘GRIPS LIKE A VICE’ – Val McDermid
'Absorbing, tense and beautifully paced' - Daily Mail
Twenty-one years ago, Dr Richard Carter and his wife Pamela were killed in what has become the most infamous double murder of the modern age.
Their ten year-old daughter – nicknamed the Angel of Death – spent eight years in a children’s secure unit and is living quietly under an assumed name with a family of her own.
Now, on the anniversary of the trial, a documentary team has tracked down her older sister, compelling her to break two decades of silence.
Her explosive interview sparks national headlines and journalist Brinley Booth, a childhood friend of the Carter sisters, is tasked with covering the news story.
For the first time, the three women are forced to confront what really happened that night – with devastating consequences for them all.
When I Was Ten is the highly anticipated, stay-up-all-night next book by acclaimed crime author Fiona Cummins.
‘I finished it with my heart in my mouth. Highly recommended’ – Louise Candlish
‘Dark, creepy and ultimately compassionate… a chilling look at the consequences of a childhood gone wrong’ – JP Delaney
‘Utterly compelling; a true just-one-more-chapter thriller’ – Clare Mackintosh
‘Pacy, dark and surprises to the bitter end. Loved it’ – Fiona Barton

Börn sem drepa...Mjög góð í flesta staði en þó var hluti eins karakters sem ég áttaði mig ekki á og finn ekki almennilega tengingu hans inn í söguna. Þar sem ég HLUSTAÐI á söguna við mismunandi aðstæður þá missti ég kannski af tengingunni. Eins fannst mér stundum erfitt að átta mig á því hver var að segja söguna þar sem sami lesari las kvenpersónur á líkan hátt...þurfti því nokkrum sinnum að spóla til baka til að vita hvort aðalpersónanna var að segja frá. Þrátt fyrir það fær sagan 4 stjörnur. Hún byrjaði hægt en eftir smá tíma gat ég varla hætt að hlusta.
