She's not who you think she is ...
Delia O'Flaherty is as wild, remote and dangerous as her island home off the west coast of Ireland. Her adoring father tells her that one day she will be the Queen of Inishcrann.
However, tragedy leaves Delia alone in the world, to make her way relying on her wits and her rare beauty. But Delia's beauty is deceptive - as anyone who cares about her eventually finds out.
What is the truth behind Delia's tragic past? And what happens when a face from that past turns up on her doorstep?

Recenzii
What takes a woman from an island childhood in Ireland to murder and ruin in Nice? - another dark twisted story from No 1 bestseller Liz Nugent.
Bloody brilliant!
A twisted thriller, reminiscent of Patricia Highsmith. A scarred woman brings chaos to those around her, but Nemesis is coming
Absorbing, beautifully written
The finest psychological thriller writer currently at work - no one gets under the skin of monstrous characters like she does
Brilliant
A tour de force ... a genuinely memorable, at times terrifying central character ... will appeal to readers who enjoy an exciting, fast-paced journey of psychological extremes, which delivers a shocking final twist
A wonderful feat of imagination, totally gripping, with a fascinating character at its heart
As one woman's singular story unspools with many an unexpected shock, Nugent skewers her targets with skill. Sly humour and dazzling originality deliver a gutsy feminist message.
Dark, brutal and brilliant
A triumph, from first page to last!
Monumentally good. Liz Nugent is a beautiful writer and among the very best storytellers in the world
I loved, loved, loved Skin Deep - the compassion of it, the beauty of the language, how glamour and horror intersect, how the tension twists tighter and tighter and is brilliantly done
Dazzling ... chilling, mesmerising and, ultimately, devastating. Pure storytelling genius
Utterly compelling ... a storyteller at the height of her powers
Her darkest book yet - a compelling one-sitting read
Utterly gripping, fast paced, and featuring my favourite sociopathic female character since Lady Macbeth
Incredibly dark, twisting and utterly mesmerising - you will not be able to put this down
Pitch dark and thrillingly original
It took me two sittings to gobble it up - a page turner. You'll just snap it up and you'll love it. A cracking read
Spellbinding
Spectacular
It's a blast ... Liz Nugent has done it again
