THE CRY

Book ID/图书代码: 04560013B60888

English Summary/英文概要: ’Someone’s stolen my baby!’ When Joanna shouts for help on a lonely roadside in Australia, it sets off a police investigation that will become a media sensation and dinner-table talk across the world.

The search for baby Noah takes on a life of its own as rumours begin to circulate online and it turns out everyone has something to hide. Guilt eats away at Joanna’s sanity and she and her partner slowly turn against each other. Finally Joanna starts thinking the unthinkable: could the truth be even more terrible than she suspected? And will it take another death to finally make things right?

The Cry is a dark psychological thriller with a gripping moral dilemma at its heart and characters who will keep you guessing on every page.

’FitzGerald excels at twisting the reader’s expectations and turning our assumptions on their heads.’ The List

’Astonishingly good. It is utterly harrowing, completely plausible, constantly nerve-shredding ... It plays on the deepest, darkest fears of all parents about their children, and embeds that everyday terror in a plot so up-to-the-minute that you’ll swear it’s been lifted from the pages of a newspaper ... The Cry is a remarkable novel - its devastating power all the stronger for its realistic rendering. Brilliant stuff.’ (Doug Johnstone, Independent on Sunday)

A book you find yourself greedily gulping down. (Herald)

The harrowing plot keeps you gripped until the final, devastating revelation. (Sunday Mirror)

Already being hailed as this year’s talking point novel for parents - the equivalent of THE SLAP ... A gripping read [that] will hit a nerve. (The Times)

My hat is totally off to this writer. (Laura Lippman)

Brilliant ... 300 pages of taut, sharp, chilling and often laugh out loud funny genius. (Lisa Jewell)

The Cry really is extraordinary. In a just universe, it will be [Helen FitzGerald’s] Gone Girl moment. Read it at once. (Steve Mosby)

In this very modern novel, which arrives at a startling conclusion, Fitzgerald manipulates our knowledge of earlier cases in which women have been wrongly accused. (Joan Smith Sunday Times)
