What They're Saying
Critics Review
A dark delight from the very first page. Combining suspense with black humour, Mr and Mrs Dixon Hide a Body is a riveting, unexpected, exploration of a toxic relationship. I adored this book – MARY WATSON
Holdich’s latest is full of the same dark humour as her first book, Julie Tudor is Not a Psychopath, and readers who enjoy unhinged yet endearing unreliable narrators will enjoy this one * Booklist *
Deliciously dark. Holdich proves that some marriages are more dangerous than murder in this gloriously twisted thriller – LM CHILTON
A comedy of errors in which all the errors lead to murder. It takes the tropes of a domestic thriller and turns them on their head into something hilarious and off-kilter – TASHA CORYELL
Funny and sinister, intricate and pacy - bravo! – GREG MOSSE
PRAISE FOR JULIE TUDOR IS NOT A PSYCHOPATH
I absolutely loved it! Murder has no right to be this funny. Imagine Hannibal Lecter as written by Victoria Wood. Perfect for fans of Caroline Kepnes and CJ Skuse – Erin Kelly
Jennifer Holdich delivers a wickedly funny and darkly compelling debut. A masterful blend of humour and suspense that kept me hooked from start to finish – Joanna Wallace
A wild, dark-humored tale … Readers will be caught off-guard by a spate of shocking twists … This gleefully destabilizing thriller teems with surprises * Publishers Weekly *
Wickedly funny, and sometimes just plain wicked. I thoroughly enjoyed this * Belfast Telegraph *
