— The New York Times
“New Zealander Rose Carlyle more than holds her own in fiction with this thrilling debut…Carlyle’s expert knowledge of sailing and vivid prose are on stunning display, while her research on twin psychology anchors the plot in reality. By the end, readers will realize they’ve been sailing a course both wildly unpredictable and expertly plotted.”

“No One Will Know is a gonzo thrill ride; the audacious Rose Carlyle kept me riveted and guessing, and every time I thought I knew where the devious plot was headed, I was dead wrong. This delightfully twisty and twisted tale is firmly anchored by Eve, a resilient young mother with the deck stacked against her. She won my heart from the opening pages. I loved it and you will, too.”

With its exotic setting, incredibly drawn characters, masterfully intricate plot, and an ending I absolutely did not see coming, Carlyle doesn’t just knock the ball out of the park—she sends it flying into the next universe. The Girl in the Mirror is a triumph, one of the best books I’ve read all year.”

“As addictive and intoxicating as the perfect martini. Don’t start reading unless you have cancelled all your plans.”
— SARAH BAILEY, author of The Dark Lake and Where the Dead Go
“Ferociously entertaining. A novel like a triathlon: part evil-twin thriller, part howdunit (or did-she-do-it?), part juicy family drama. Drop Knives Out and Double Indemnity into the blender, shake some Dead Calm over the froth, power it on, and you’ve got a cocktail like The Girl in the Mirror—fresh, flavorful, and utterly intoxicating.”
— AJ Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window
“A young woman tries to outrun the secrets that her own actions create. The thrill of the chase gathers us up and pulls us through each page to the very last. And in that other game of pursuit, the author matching wits with the reader, Rose Carlyle is always one step ahead. Of The Girl in the Mirror’s many surprises, the biggest is that such an expert psychological thriller, such an addictive ride, could be a debut.”
— Malcolm Knox, author of The Life and Bluebird
