‘The Darkness Within hooked me from the start. Once you start you won’t be able to stop!’
Katerina Diamond, No.1 bestselling author of The Teacher
‘This is a cracking good read that had me hooked from the beginning until the end. Full of murders, spiritualistic intrigue and just a hint of romance. It is quick paced, extremely thought provoking and full of twists and turns. I didn’t want to put this book down.’
Amazon reviewer
‘Fantastic book, couldn’t turn the pages quickly enough!’
Amazon reviewer
‘A well-written and extremely addictive novel that will stick in your head long after putting it down.’
Amazon reviewer
‘I flew through The Darkness Within; it maintained a dark and gritty atmosphere whilst covering some rather disturbing subject matters. But despite there being some very emotive and hard to read scenes described, I raced through the pages desperate to know how it would end and I certainly wasn’t disappointed.’
Goodreads reviewer
‘A unique plot and storyline – I enjoyed the book immensely. It really makes you think.’
Goodreads reviewer
‘What a powerful novel. I have read all of most of Cathy Glass’s books and here she is writing under a new name Lisa Stone. I love the fact she has branched into crime thriller and I think she has done it really well.’
Goodreads reviewer
‘I really enjoyed this. Interesting and captivating story line, great characters and easy to read – not the subject matter which is difficult, dark and pretty violent, but the style of writing. A gripping thriller.’
Goodreads reviewer
‘The Darkness Within is certainly a dark and gripping read and one that will win over new fans as well as old.’
Goodreads reviewer
‘With areas that lead us to the dark depths of our own imagination, and parts so well described you could almost be in the same room, The Darkness Within is a struggle to leave unfinished.’
Amazon reviewer
‘Thank you Lisa Stone for making my long train journey feel like a ten minute ride! I will now look forward to your next book.’
Amazon reviewer
‘A great read. The author has a style of writing that makes the words just flow off the page and as the story develops it’s a difficult book to put down as you want to know how it’s all going to end.’
Amazon reviewer
‘Absolutely fantastic, I could not put it down. Cannot recommend this book highly enough. You will become addicted to this author.’
Amazon reviewer
‘An enjoyable chiller for the summer reading pile!’
Goodreads reviewer
‘I loved the premise, it appealed to the horror/sci-fi loving side of me. Lisa understands human relationships and the ugly side of people very well, and this shone through in her work.’
Amazon reviewer
‘Stalker had me hooked from the beginning and I read it in one session!’
Amazon reviewer
‘Stalker got better and better, with a few surprises along the way. I’d highly recommend Lisa Stone.’
Amazon reviewer
‘Had my heart pounding towards the end! Couldn’t put it down.’
Amazon reviewer
‘Stalker is a completely and utterly gripping, engrossing read. What starts off as a case of voyeurism turns into something much darker and sinister, leading up to a fantastic ending. If you want a cracking good crime thriller, then I highly recommend this one.’
Amazon reviewer
