Acerca de este título

As featured on Simon Mayo's BBC Radio 2 Book Club.

'Girl in Snow is a perfectly-paced and tautly-plotted thriller.' Paul Hawkins, author of The Girl on the Train.

Who are you when no one is watching?

When beloved high school student Lucinda Hayes is found murdered, no one in her sleepy Colorado suburb is untouched – not the boy who loved her too much; not the girl who wanted her perfect life; not the police officer assigned to investigate. In the aftermath of the tragedy, these three unforgettable characters – Cameron, Jade, and Russ – must each confront their darkest secrets in an effort to find solace, the truth, or both.

In crystalline prose, Danya Kukafka explores the razor-sharp line between love and obsession, between watching and seeing, between reality and memory. Intoxicating and emotionally intense, Girl in Snow is a gripping debut novel that will linger long after the final page is turned.

Shortlisted for the 2018 CWA John Creasey (New Blood) Dagger.
Shortlisted for Hearst's Big Book Award 2018.

Reseñas de la crítica

A perfectly paced and tautly plotted thriller. Danya Kukafka’s misfit characters are richly drawn, her prose is both elegant and eerie – this is an incredibly accomplished debut (Paula Hawkins, author of The Girl on the Train and Into the Water )
Stark, utterly compulsive with a compelling, unique writing style. This thriller blew me away (Kate Hamer, author of The Girl in the Red Coat)
A sensational debut - great characters, mysteries within mysteries, and page-turning pace. Highly recommended (Lee Child, bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series)
A dark and elegant thriller set in small-town America
A creepy, psychological drama set in a snowbound Colorado high school
The beautiful writing, perfect pacing and gripping plot made Girl In Snow a standout for me. (Joanne Finney, books editor)
Captivating
With a knack for writing oh-so-real teenage characters and underline-worthy prose, [Kukafka] weaves a tale of voyeurism and obsession that's impossible to put down
Kuafka’s bewitching first novel spins a spell of mournful confessions around a Twin Peaks-like centerpiece. In [her] capable hands, villainy turns out to be everywhere and nowhere, a DNA that could be found under the fingernails of everybody’s hands
An intricate, seductive murder mystery, in which a single awful crime exposes conflicts and traumas in an entire community . . . Girl in Snow is not just an impressive debut but one of the best literary mysteries to come along in some time
A haunting, lyrical novel about love, loss, and terror . . . The world Kukafka so masterfully creates is suspenseful and electrifying; I was willing to follow her wherever she took me' (Anton DiSclafani, author of The Yonahlossee Riding Camp for Girls )
‘A propulsive mystery set in a suburban community marked by unsettling voyeurism. Danya Kukafka patiently reveals layers of her characters’ inner lives – their ugliness and vulnerabilities – in prose that sparkles and wounds. I couldn’t put this one down’ (Brit Bennett, New York Times bestselling author of The Mothers)
Elegiac and involving . . . engagingly told . . . its endearing characters’ struggles linger in memory after this affecting work is done
Written with raw immediacy, each character is complex, aching and ashamed, for different reasons . . . a quietly taut thriller concerned with the secrets we keep from our closest loved-ones and even from ourselves . . . keeps hold of the reader long after the final denouement
This brooding and intense thriller will plunge readers into a dark world they may not want to enter - but they may be unable to tear themselves free
