Editorial Reviews

"A riotous and wild ride." —Attica Locke

“The twists start from page one and never let up—dramatic, thrilling and even compulsive.” —James Patterson

“An intense, feverish novel with riveting plot twists.” —Sara Paretsky

“A devilishly clever mystery . . . Hall’s writing sizzles and pops. Miriam Macy is unforgettable.” —Meg Gardiner, author of Into the Black Nowhere

“Tense, clever, and timely...a brilliant, modern take on the classic locked-room mystery, full of intriguing characters and harrowing retribution. Hall sure knows how to write suspense.” —Kristen Lepionka, author of The Last Place You Look

"Hall confidently delivers a highly entertaining stand-alone that pays homage to Agatha Christie while finding its own individual approach....They All Fall Down should be her breakout novel." —Associated Press

From the Publisher

Narrator Janina Edwards gets the listener’s heart thudding with her dramatic performance of an Agatha Christie-like thriller. Single-mother Miriam Macy attempts to leave behind a wealth of troubles—emotional and legal—to participate in a reality TV competition set in Mexico on a luxury estate with no connection to the outside world. But what is supposed to be a friendly contest for enough money to dig herself out of her woes turns into an all-out threat to her survival. Edwards maintains the listener’s rapt attention with her powerful portrayal of a woman in the middle of a nightmare. She expertly navigates this thriller and keeps the listener with her to the end.
