The Night Visitor - Hardcover

"A gripping page-turner."--The Sunday Times on The Missing One

Praise for Lucy Atkins
"Atkins keeps the suspense high to the startling conclusion."--Publishers Weekly on The Other Child

"The real power in novels of this type comes in the degree to which the author captures the psychological and emotional conflicts the protagonist must go through. Atkins handles this masterfully."--PCA/ACA Mystery & Detective Fiction Reading List on The Other Child

"This is an enthralling, creepy, and endlessly twisty story about secrets, lies, and the destructive power of ambition."--Heat

"A fabulously dark, tension-filled read."--Woman & Home

"[A] sense of unease keeps pushing all the way to the last, intense pages. A reckoning is coming, but why? . . . With shades of Rebecca and The Secret History, Atkins has produced an eerie page-turner that will have readers guessing from the first."
--Kirkus Reviews


"Part psychological thriller, part morality tale, with a pinch of the supernatural thrown in for good measure, this third novel from Lucy Atkins has the key ingredients of a bestseller. The sound of creepy-crawlies scuttling around in the darkness becomes deafening as events hurtle towards a complex, heart-stopping conclusion. Bone-chillingly good."--Boundless

"Part mystery, part feminist tome, part story of parental love, part animal-rights narrative, The Missing One is like nothing I've read before . . . A poetic page-turner."--The Cleveland Plain Dealer on The Missing One

"Wholly original and utterly unputdownable, The Night Visitor delivers a superb story of suspense with a personality all its own . . . Every book should be as fun to read as this one."--Crime by the Book

"A deliciously creepy novel fueled by fraud, greed, and violence . . . Fits right in with the best of the psychological thrillers on everyone's lists. Readers of Ruth Ware and Gillian Flynn will love it."--Library Journal (Starred Review)
