Sun Damage: The most suspenseful crime thriller of 2026 from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Lie With Me and Dead Heat de Sabine Durrant

Sun Damage: The most suspenseful crime thriller of 2026 from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Lie With Me and Dead Heat

Autor Sabine Durrant
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 mai 2023

Descoperim aici o structură narativă stratificată, unde aparențele clasei de mijloc britanice se topesc sub soarele necruțător al Provence-ului. Găsim în această carte o perspectivă duală: o analiză fină a dinamicii de familie dublată de un pericol iminent, aproape tangibil. Reținem tensiunea care pulsează din fiecare pagină. Nouă oaspeți sosesc la o vilă izolată. Se cunosc de o viață. Sau așa cred. Ali, protagonista noastră, poartă povara unor secrete care amenință să iasă la suprafață. Căldura este sufocantă. Spațiul devine claustrofob. Nimeni nu are unde să fugă. Dacă The Safe Place de Anna Downes v-a captivat prin izolarea neliniștitoare a unei proprietăți franceze, această carte extinde experiența în direcția unei vulnerabilități psihologice mult mai profunde. Sabine Durrant rafinează aici temele obsesiei și ale identității false explorate anterior în Lie With Me și Finders, Keepers. Observăm cum autoarea transformă vacanța ideală într-un coșmar logistic și emoțional. Stilul este tăios. Ritmul este alert. Finalul este de o satisfacție rară. Nu este doar un roman polițist, ci o disecție a necinstei umane. Totul se fierbe la foc mic până la punctul de explozie.

Recenzii

Secrets and tensions rise along with the temperature until they reach boiling point
Another masterful trouble-in-paradise book from Sabine Durrant, whose sharp observations strip bare the darkness we all try to hide. The suspense sizzles off every page
Plenty of Ripleyish peril to keep the nerves on edge
Sun-soaked brilliance
Absorbing, intriguing, with great twists and pace, SUN DAMAGE is a wonderful rollercoaster of a read
Gripping . . . Full of twists, secrets and tension
Pacy and intriguing, this has a sizzling tension all the way through
A masterclass of slow-burning psychological suspense, packed with intrigue and full of the most delightfully unreliable narrators one could ever wish to meet . . . It is an intricately woven book of many layers, in which Durrant ponders questions around the nature of guilt, culpability and coercive control, all wrapped up in a wonderfully addictive story. It should come with a warning, since believe me, once you start, you'll resent everyone and anything that drags you away from reading it
Sun Damage is gloriously teasing, and is just about the most exciting and obsessively readable book to have passed through my fingers for eons . . . an absolute roller coaster of a book, where every page holds a shock, a surprise or a horror
One of our best thriller writers returns with a multi-layered novel that keeps readers on the back foot throughout
Dream-holiday-nightmare . . . will make queuing at the airport feel much quicker
Tangled'n'twisty
Written with Durrant's usual acuity, Sun Damage is an attractive two-for-one deal: smart observation of family life and Brits abroad in the middle, bookended by a Highsmithian thriller
An exploration of vulnerability, trickery and cruel dishonesty
The premise is so interested and the characters so divisive that you'll want to keep reading
A sizzling thriller
Escapist thriller
Essential holiday reading material
Claustrophobic and suspenseful, with an engaging narrator and a satisfying twist: perfect poolside reading
A brilliant read with twists and turns up to the last page
A merciless portrayal of privileged English abroad leavens a tense and fiendish thriller. Yikes!
Ideal for a sun lounger at home or abroad
Durrant is relentless with the suspense . . . superbly controlled, a novel that's obsidian dark under the blazing French sun
Durrant confirms her status as one of Britain's best thriller writers
Sabine Durrant is one of the greatest thriller writers of our generation and this is her at her scorching, gripping, unputdownable best. Sun Damage is brilliantly plotted, but it is Durrant's graceful yet probing descriptions of place and class, her insight into families and couples and what lies beneath, and her painting of settings so exquisite that you feel you're really there that make this book so incredibly satisfying and enjoyable. 5*!
