ReviewsLisa Ballantyne's The Innocent One is a crackling good read--exactly the kind of novel that readers have come to expect from one of the most talented psychological suspense authors working today. With a gripping, twisty plot, conflicted and relatable characters, ever-rising tension, and an ending that's as thrilling as it is satisfying, I loved this book!, Ballantyne's effortless prose took me across the Atlantic and didn't let me return until its surprising and satisfying conclusion. A tight story that comes full circle and keeps you reading., A tense and shocking thriller that has the added treat of Lisa Ballantyne's deft prose. I loved it., I couldn't get this book out of my head. It kept me up all night and guessing the whole way through. I loved it., A character-driven, domestic crime novel. Through juxtaposing the choices of two emotionally disturbed boys, Ballantyne sensitively explores themes of rejection, abuse, and forgiveness., Sophisticated, suspenseful, unsettling, and highly recommended: a terrific debut from an author to watch., Lisa Ballantyne weaves a fine tale of family drama, dark secrets, and the past's effect on the present. The threads seamlessly come together in a heart-wrenching, yet hopeful, finale., A page-turner of a thriller. I couldn't put this beautifully crafted, beautifully written book down; and the complex, flawed characters stayed with me for a long time., 'It was a terrible thing to know you were going to die and not be able to do anything to prevent it.' Fingernail-on-a-chalkboard sentences like this one are what make The Innocent One , Lisa Ballantyne's fifth novel -- the follow-up to 2012's The Guilty One -- so good. Fashioning memorable suspense out of a well-known case is incredibly difficult, but Ballantyne makes it look easy., A sweet novel of love, redemption, and loss that chronicles one family's struggle with a difficult past., A skillful mixture of creepy crime thriller and gripping domestic drama, The Innocent One had me turning the pages late into the night.
