Sally Diamond cannot understand why what she did was so strange. She was only doing what her father told her to do, to put him out with the rubbish when he died.

Now Sally is the centre of attention, not only from the hungry media and police detectives, but also a sinister voice from a past she cannot remember. As she begins to discover the horrors of her childhood, Sally steps into the world for the first time, making new friends and big decisions, and learning that people don't always mean what they say.

But who is the man observing Sally from the other side of the world? And why does her neighbour seem to be obsessed with her? Sally's trust issues are about to be severely challenged . . .

Reseñas de la Crítica

Magnificent . . .. Liz Nugent is a treasure (Shari Lapena)

I loved every damn second of it (Lisa Jewell)

Surprising, moving and shockingly original (Harlan Coben)

Strikingly well-observed and consistently surprising

I devoured [it] . . . It's incredible! (Sara Cox)

Liz Nugent has outdone herself. Twisted and twisty, dark and gripping, no one is going to forget Sally Diamond in a hurry! (Graham Norton)

In Sally Diamond, Nugent has given us an astounding creation with a singular voice . . . an absorbing, twisty, compulsive psychological thriller with surprising humour and pathos (Sophie White)

Strange indeed . . . and smart, too! Shocking, disturbing and utterly original, Strange Sally Diamond will grip you from first page to last (Paula Hawkins)

If Liz Nugent was a clockmaker she'd be Galileo . . . She is as excellent a writer as anyone living I can think of (Sebastian Barry)

Liz Nugent dares to go where many won't. What a compelling storyteller she is. Always challenging. I laughed out loud only to recoil from my laughter as the story unfolded. For this is wickedly dark territory.
And yet amidst the darkness, she allows a light to glimmer - that of a diamond'

(Sarah Winman)

Storyline top tier

This book was really good. The storyline and the plot twistS where top tier. I liked it a lot and recommend if you want a storyline from many points a view of something horrific.

i hated the end

That's a really well written and engaging book. The story goes on fastly, and everything makes sense until nearly the end. the very last bit is a pity. I feel the end is far-fached and messed up. I didn't like both the message that it contains, and it's non-solving nature. The book, in general, is a good one, though.

Gripping

Such an incredibly gripping book. I couldn’t stop listening. So well written. Great character development. Well thought out plot. Such an amazing read, would 100% recommend!

Totally exceeded my expectations

I got to know Liz Nugent through Skin Deep: I fell in love with her then and in less than three months I had already listened to all of her books. I was anxiously waiting for this one to be published (I had bought it in the pre-sale). It's HER BEST BOOK. Flawless. And perfect for a movie. Thank you, Liz, for such a great (and 100% believable) story.

Fantastic read

Loved every second of this story one that starts and toes up everything very well
