‘Wow! I loved The Holdout, in which author Graham Moore does the impossible, creating a page-turning legal thriller with a twisty and absolutely riveting plot, as well as raising profound and thought-provoking questions about the jury system and modern justice. All that, plus a strong and compelling female heroine in lawyer Maya Seale, whom you’ll root for as the tables turn against her and she finds herself behind bars, with everything on the line. You won’t be able to put this one down!’ Lisa Scottoline, #1 bestselling author of Someone Knows
‘Quite the tour de force! Twelve Angry Men meets Chinatown and creates something of its own.’ Sarah Pinborough
‘The most gripping and satisfying thriller I’ve read in more than a decade Graham Moore’s heart beats on every page of THE HOLDOUT, a murder trial as only he could have written it: secrets and lies, mysteries upon mysteries, and a cast of characters each with their own dubious motives. This is a tense, emotionally charged, scary-good, stand-out read that hooked me till the last page.’ Caroline Kepnes
