Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“A brilliantly balanced knife’s edge of a book—fast-paced and thrilling, it’s somehow also languorous, thoughtful, intelligently intimate. Kepler is a thoroughly absorbing and sympathetic anti-hero, trying to minimize harm while striving for survival.” —NPR
“Fast-paced, imaginative…masterful.” —Washington Post
“The high stakes and breakneck pace of the plot will draw…[listeners] in, and the meditations on what it means to be human and to be loved will linger long after the last shot is fired.” —Kirkus Reviews
“A work of sparkling originality that works both as mesmerising thriller and exploration of what it means, at the most profound level, to be human.” —Alex Marwood, author of The Wicked Girls
Touch is a story within a story within a story and it's one of the cleverest, most compelling books I've read in a long time.

Taylor, author of The Accident on Touch
Touch is fast, smart, cinematic and with a cracking central idea. This is absolutely destined to be one of the biggest thrillers of 2015... A very, very impressive second outing. —Rick O'Shea, radio presenter, on Touch
Seriously I cannot get over how amazingly good Claire North is. I could have read this book forever. The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August was so smart, Touch is beyond genius. This will be one of THE books of 2015. Mark my words. — Bite the Book (Australia) on Touch
